With the exception of wireless card drivers (using the ndiswrapper module), Windows device drivers cannot be used in Linux. Windows applications can be run using Wine, with compatibility and stability depending on the program. Wine can be installed from the command line on Trisquel using the command "sudo apt-get install wine."

What should you install after a new Windows XP installation?

The first things to install after installing Windows are the system drivers. That way, all of your hardware will work properly with Windows. Otherwise, the system will be slow, some USB ports might not work, any RAID features might not work (or not properly) there might be no sound, and the screen resolution and refresh will likely be horrible. The best driver to install first is often the network driver. If you have that one, you can get all the other drivers if you don't have them. After installing the system drivers, you would likely want to install your favorite applications, games, and utilities. If you like a lot of music and movies, you should find a good codec set and install it so your machine can play all the various formats.

Does C programming work on Windows 7?

You can't install C++ programs on Windows 7. The compatibility issue is due to turbo software not due to Windows 7. Turbo C does not work on Windows 7 because Turbo C is 16 bit application where Windows 7 does not support 16 bit applications. But there's a tool which allows users to install 16 bit applications on Windows 7. The tool is DOSBox. Use DOSBox to install Turbo C in Windows 7.
