Yes you can. I looked into that though and they will not work on Win 11 (movies). They will work on all the previous Windows. They will play for text messages but not motion. I suppose this means you have to select the views by page or frame per frame manually.

Cheap, used computers with the older Win versions are plentiful on ebay.
