system file error message

[KJHeath]

I have tried to install my older versions of MS Office; 97 and QuickBooks99
on my new WindowsXP computer, but I get a "The system file is not suitable
for running MS-DOS and MicroSoft Windows applications". How do I get these
programs to run on my system. I use them regularly, or did.
