To install on Windows XP: -Right click on REalPhone.exe and select Properties -Select the Compatibility tab -Click Run this program in compatibility mode for -select Windows 95 in the dropdown. Now install. After the install, a window will be present that shows various shortcuts, including one to the installed RealPhone program. Repeat the above operation with that file. That is, -Right click on REalPhone shortcut and select Properties -Select the Compatibility tab -Click Run this program in compatibility mode for -select Windows 95 in the dropdown. If you want to select the actual program i.e., instead of the shortcut, I suspect you will have to do the same thing.
