I too had the same problem a few years ago, my fix was a stand alone machine for my drawing, cogo and accounting......funny thing, take the internet out of the equation and it still runs like brand new..........just a thought
I have an ancient Pentium 3 running Windows 95 that drives a midi software program, will still interface with an elderly Casio synthesizer and print out arrangements. It hasn't connected to the internet EVER, as it has never had a modem, needed the port for the midi card back in the day.
