What Dave is referring to is "Windows Program Compatibility Mode", and it is very cool. For more information on what it is and how to use it, see: "HOW TO: Use Windows Program Compatibility Mode (Q292533)". I have used this quite a bit, and also use vmware with nt4 and win2k (and obsd and linux) of course.

I can't remember exactly how, though - try the always-helpful right-click on the app executable and see what happens....

(the list goes on) All these worked on my laptop nicely under Windows 2000? Does anyone have a solution to this? I guess what I need is a raw packet capture driver that works under winXP... Any ideas?
