> > Windows 95/98 games not working on XP and beyond UZEE (;´Д`) > Even with the appropriate compatibility mode? (;´Д`) Yeah - in fact that rarely ever works (;´Д`) People have made wrappers, patches, remakes, etc. for the most popular games, but anything less popular from that time is often bug-ridden, unplayable, or even un-installable (;´Д`) Reference: 2024/06/06(Thu) 15:26:15
