Notes
In an ideal world all programs would have been correctly-written and would be 32-bit compatible as a matter of course. In practice, when an older program fails to work within a 32-bit environment, the available solutions are:
- Re-write or patch the original software or the incompatible resources (usually modules) that it is trying to use.
- Use Aemulor or Aemulor Pro as appropriate.
- Continue using an older Acorn or RISC OS PC to run the software.
- Use an emulator such as VirtualRPC on PC hardware.
