What tackling do I have to do for Bob? Stupid...

Hello everyone.

This is the stupidest thing I've ever posted.

Have you heard of Microsoft Bob (1995)? Maybe yes. I have Bob 1.00a on my
Vista computer. Vista is Home Premium Edition.
Bob "works", but some dialog boxes remain on the screen and you have to drag
something over them to erase them. And almost all of the Bob programs don't
work. I've put the requested DLLs in their folders, but zero overall.

So, what tackling do I have to do?

Sorry for this stupid post.

You have been trying to get to grips with computers for 22 years now? If
you still need the helping hand of Bob, you could install VirtualPC and
install Win 3.1 on that if you still have a copy of that as well.

Er, I meant 12 years of course. It wasn't that long since I went to
university.

You could try using Compatibility Mode as well. Try Win95, if Vista has
that (using XP atm).

Maybe you should install Microsoft Bob Server.
