I am a novelist with a six-months-old new HP PAVILION
A250N.  WORD came with it.  I have two major problems:

1) I save my back-up document to E (CD,DVD) but when I
callb it up in Word I cannot use the GO TO (page) or FIND
and when I try the computer freezes up and I have to re-
start.

2) I have FILE EXPRESS, a DOS program I've used for
years.  When I bought the computer they salesman at the
store told me there was a way I could use DOS programs
with my XP syster.  I've read the instructions in the
WINDOWS XP HOME manual but although I get the program to
come up it flashes back to the desktop when I try to
access (i.e.) ADD.
