[Vishwas 0]

GREETINGS FELLOW HUMANS,

I want to know Is there any place I can find all the applications and Hardware which incomptiable alone (Getting a list which includes both compatiable and incompatiale requires lots of work to get a list of only incompatiable apps).

Please Help.

thanks in advance,

Vishwas Bhari

Microsoft has a HCL (Hardware Compatibility List) for all WHQL-Certified hardware, available here. This is the most recent revision, dated 10-29-2002.

If you're looking at upgrading, download the latest "checkupgradeonly" utility from MS. Outside of that, the most incompatible applications are (drum roll):

 

1. Utilities - antivirus, older versions of firewalls, utility suites, etc.

2. CD burning programs

3. Interactive/multimedia applications that use an old version of Quicktime (usually ver. 2.*)

4. Some 16bit Windows programs (programs originally designed to run on Windows 3.1*)

 

Considering the vast number of applications out there, many who's mfgr's are gone, a list of this type is almost impossible.
