    Will my old copy of AutoCAD R12 run on my 64-bit win 7 pc if I add a fdd & parallel port?
    I really don't think it will. Perhaps I could source an old 486 pc/laptop instead

    I've read of one person who got r14 to run on a Win7 computer and it was 64-bit! Is yours 32-bit or 64-bit?

    Old computers are so cheap you could probably find someone who is giving away an old 486.

    Old cars are cheap too but I don't think anyone wants to give away a Model T.
    There is a VM called DOSBOX that may work. Let us know if it does.
