awergh Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 depends on what sort of app it issome apps can be fooledmsi files be done easilyothers can notgo to the kernel update thread that could help you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j7n Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 (edited) Some apps don't really require XP, just their installers do. Some apps don't even really require installation.But as awergh said, it depends on the software product. Edited March 4, 2007 by j7n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awergh Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 msi files can be edited by ocha 2 easily to remove version checkers but this does not mean they will work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius '95 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 ABBYY FineReader 8 installer (.msi file) can be edited with Orca and then installed on Win98. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eidenk Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I don't think Orca itself runs under the 9x platform. Msis can be extracted easily with a command line tool called msix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
