starting with the release of Windows Vista and continuing in Windows 7, the Windows Help program will not ship as a feature of Windows 7 and newer. If you want to view 32-bit . hlp files, you must download and install the program (WinHlp32.exe) from the Microsoft Download Center ".

Thanks for the quick response! I tried to download WinHlp32.exe but Microsoft only shows it available for Windows 8.1
On disc 1 I get the message " this operating system is not supported by the EMS -2 software"

I might be able to still upgrade to Windows 10 free, will that solve the issue.

I don’t have any idea if it’ll work, but it’s much more likely to work on an older OS.

Maybe right click and run in compatibility mode? Dual boot XP on the laptop?

Managed to run Windows 7 in compatibility mode, and it looks like iit is working!

Thank you all for the help! I will post some pics of my 1992 M998 in a few weeks!
