I have this old program that won't run because it doesn't support XP, even though it would be able to run on XP it doesn't recognize it so it won't install because it is so old. Is there anyway I can make it think I am running 98?

if you have a copy of 98...
install a program called VMware (it's free).you'll be able to install win98 and the program on win98.

VMware is a good idea.
