That is an evil thing to help you run Win2000/WinXP apps on Win98 or WinME and I believe you can go the opposite direction. Just install the application, right-click over the Genotyper program icon, go into Properties and select the operating system mode under which it should be executed. As I said, perfect way to run newer apps (like Firefox, some antivirus software) on Win98/Me ... You have fast computer and all apps you need.
