Best Answer

Many DOS applications simply will not run under Windows Vista, and none under the 64-bit version. Making the NTVDM support DOS programs in Vista was an extremely low priority, since very few people actually run DOS programs anymore.

You can use QBasic and other DOS programs on Vista (even the 64-bit version) by using an emulator known as DOSBox.
