Stuck? What can you do that I can't on Windows 7?
Instead of using old proprietary shit you could use Linux or *BSD with a vintage desktop environment and have a blast
Something I noticed is that basic users (someone using a fucking 30 y/o OS is definitely one) have an easier time with *nix because most "technical" people are overfitted and brainwashed to the Micro$uck ecosystem

The dot net framework was ported to Windows 95/98 so they can use more software now.
