older games get unmovible black screen
Hi
I've tried to install 2 games (C&C Generals: Zero Hour, and Robot Arena 2: Design and Destroy). After a successful install, I'd click on the .exe file to run the game and a black screen appears. I can NOT close the screen with ctrl+alt+delete or alt+tab, neither can I restart the computer buy pressing the physical button, thus forcing me to turn my computer off at the mains.
System specs:
Vista Home Premium x64
Intel Dual Core E7400
4GB RAM
NVIDIA 9800GT
I've tried running in compatibility mode (XP service pack 2) and they still don't work. Is it possible that these games are simply unable to be used with Vista at all?
Thanks very much for any help.
