Default Apache Longbow and Hind

I was just at a friend's house and they were getting rid of some old computer stuff and I saw the twin pack of Apache Longbow and Hind, they said I could have it I know have a piece of flight sim history, except, anyone know how to run them in XP? By the way I can scan up the manuals if they are wanted

Hind at least runs in XP 32 bits, but you need to enable Win95 compatibility.

Also after exiting the program my display gets stuck at 640x480x256, the longer the game's been the longer it stays. However you shouldn't do anything but waiting for it to eventually come to its senses again. (Then again the problem may not happen to you.)

Not sure if this should go in "Abandonia games discussion"...
