    You will probably have to install and run in Win2000 compatibility mode with r14. Before you double-click on your setup.exe icon to install r14 right-click on it and select properties. In the properties window click on the compatibility tab. Here you will see a compatibility mode area, here you can tell XP to install this in Win2000 mode (as well as Win98, 95 and NT 4.0 modes). You might also need to run r14 in Win2000 mode as well after you install. I have heard that you might need to do this for r14 to work. I have also heard people say that they did not need to do this. I myself have not tried it either way. In fact try it in normal mode 1st and see how it works. let us know what you find out. I would like to hear how it does. I guess I could did up a r14 cd but I'd have to dip deep to find one
    Good luck
