Hi All

I have a customer with a DOS based Accounting program on a
SBS 2000 Server with XP Pro Clients.

He used to have a Win98 Server and clients. Since his
upgrade he has complain about the slowness of the DOS
based program. I have tried compatibility mode and
allocating memory to the DOS session with out success.

Any Ideas out there

Thanks in advance

In this case you would have to ask the author of the software for if
he provides a version that runs with Windows XP. Alternative: get a
DOS boot disk from www.bootdisk.com and run this program from plain
DOS after you have booted off the disk.
