Doom Archive Reopened
Obiwan Kenobi writes "Computer game history buffs rejoice: Lee Killough's Doom Archive has been reopened at John Romero's site. Its been offline since 1998, when it was handed to Romero to look after, and has finally resurfaced. The info inside is priceless, if a bit Romero-centric, but who can deny the nostalgia of downloadable alpha versions, beta screenshots (complete with wild health meters) and the original Doom Press Release where the game tagline reads "Doom-the sanest place is behind a trigger.""
Anyone ever get that one running? I got the source once...
My Ass hurts.
But there's a mirror available here.

Applications
16-bit Applications
Products: Windows XP 64-Bit Edition Version 2003; Windows
These products do not support most 16-bit applications.
Most applications that use 16-bit Microsoft ACME Setup versions 2.6, 3.0, 3.01, and 3.1 and InstallShield versions 5.x install correctly.
No 32-bit applications that are installed by 16-bit setup programs are supported. If you try to install one of these applications, the message "\Setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application" appears, and the application closes.
32-bit device drivers
Products: Windows XP 64-Bit Edition Version 2003; Windows
These products do not support 32-bit device drivers. Applications that provide 32-bit device drivers will not function correctly and might cause an error during installation or operation. Most 32-bit antivirus programs are affected and should not be installed on computers that are running 64-bit operating systems.
If Windows does not start after you attempt to install a 32-bit driver, start the computer using the last known good configuration as follows:
Click Start, and then click Shut Down.
Click Restart, and then click OK.
When the message "Please select the operating system to start" appears, press F8.
Press an arrow key to highlight Last Known Good Configuration, and then press ENTER.
Press an arrow key to highlight an operating system, press ENTER, and follow the instructions.
Note
Completing this procedure provides a way to recover from problems such as a newly added driver that is incorrect for your hardware. It does not solve problems caused by drivers or files that are corrupted or missing. When you start the computer using the last known good configuration, only the information in registry key HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet is restored. Any changes you have made in other registry keys remain.
Internet Explorer and 32-bit Web components
Products: Windows XP 64-Bit Edition Version 2003; Windows
The 64-bit version of Internet Explorer will not load 32-bit Web components, such as the MSN Money Ticker and Web components from companies other than Microsoft. To work around this issue, use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer.
To open the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer, click Start, click All Programs, and then click Internet Explorer (32-bit).
Microsoft Content Management Server Setup
Products: Windows
Before you install Content Management Server, enable Active Server Pages (ASP) as follows:
In Internet Information Services Manager, expand the local computer, and then click Web Service Extensions.
In the details pane, click Active Server Pages, and then click Allow.
If you do not enable ASP before you install Content Management Server, the installation will not complete correctly.
Microsoft Agent
Products: Windows
These products provide inbox support for Speech Application Programming Interface (SAPI) version 5.0 engines and programs. To avoid loss of functionality in Microsoft Agent applications that use SAPI version 4.0 speech input and/or output engines, you must install SAPI version 4.0a run-time support and then reinstall the SAPI version 4.0 speech engines, even if they were working with Microsoft Agent before you upgraded. To install SAPI version 4.0a run-time support, click here.
