Sadly, no, but there is a workaround. Read the following article copied from MS:


The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5, 2.5a, 2.5b, 2.6, 2.6a

SYMPTOMS
FoxPro for Windows may cause a "Divide by Zero / Overflow" error when attempting to start on computers with 333 mhz (or faster) processors.

RESOLUTION
NOTE: The third-party contact information included in this article is provided to help you find the technical support you need. This contact information is subject to change without notice. Microsoft in no way guarantees the accuracy of this third-party contact information.

A third party workaround has been developed and that you may use to launch FoxPro for Windows. The name of the application is Slowstart.exe. You can download the file from the following URL:
