So easy today that I do not understand

[ack3]

I began with machine code 50 year ago - that I understood but as things as made simple they become hard for old-timers.

 

1)

Going from Windows 98 to Windows XP and I can't get going. How do I bring ZIP files from a previous computer, or download by internet, and then open and install (and run) them? I no longer seem to have direct access to the tools with which I need to work. How do I download IPlay files and install as I did in Win98 environment?

 

2)

I have gotten some documents to transfer but they will not open, I understand they may not be Word files but .doc, .wri and other Window98 extentions are no longer recognized.

 

Thanks.
