Nearly all games work on XP and Vista. For games that do not, try each of these steps in order until your game works: * Right click on the game's .exe or shortcut. Select properties. Select the Compatibiliy tab. Under Compatibility mode, select run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP. If that does not work... * Under the same compatibility tab, select run this program as an administrator. If that does not work... * Visit the game's website and update your game to the latest version If that does not work... * Search Google with " vista problem" and check to see if there are any solutions. If that does not work...you're out of luck! You most likely won't be able to get it working.
