Matt,

Please see [FoxPro Windows 2.6] How to run FP2.6 App with Windows 2000 Thread #240635 Message #240635 beginning on 07/13/1999 (entire thread).

The consensus was that FPW2.6 ran fine under W2000 installed on a virgin machine, but not under W2000 installed as an upgrade.

>A client installed Windows 2000 Professional Release Candidate 2 (October 1999) and our payroll and financial applications don't run (the screen just gives a quick flicker, then returns to the desktop). Tried FOXSTART.EXE (the freeware CPU hog that allows the previous fpw2600.esl to run on fast pentiums) as suggested in foxforum, but that didn't work.
