    I have an old Gateway notebook. Model ML6732. I want to see if it is up gradable to Windows 10. I don't care if everything gets deleted in the process.

    As I've understood it, ever since the release of Windows 7, there has been no way to support programs written to run in a DOS session from within Windows, even by using XP Mode or by running a Virtual Machine with Windows XP. Is this still true, or have there been any methods or products...
