I was able to solve all my Compatibility issues using the above 3 Tweaks, and yes if the Old
Beast can still run on Newer Machines so why should we replace it ? .And if even all the
above 3 fail we always have the Option of Virtual Machine and installing OS on it which
though lengthy always works, so Enjoy your favourite legacy and Old Softwares with the
above mentioned tricks, and if in case Some Software still doesnt run simply Comment,
we would be glad to help!

Hello Nikunj, since youre using it through a lan server, I will really recommend
you to use hyper V or any virtualisation software for the same. Had it been
required to use locally dosbox would have been great for you de nitely hyper V or
virtual machines are the way ahead

Hi, I got Turbo for installing the game Arabian Nights Japanese edition which installer
could not run in Windows 10 64bit saying This app cant run on your PC.
I copied all les including _setuo.exe from CD into the;
C:\TurboC4\Techapple.net\Arabian
Then dragged _setup.exe to
C:\TurboC4\Techapple.net\DosBox.exe
Still no luck , heres the response;
http://tinypic.com/r/dnyufb/9
Is there any clue to make _setup.exe of Arabian Nights using TurboC/C++ 4.0 Installer
For All Windows Versions ?
