compatibility

I am having trouble running old cd games. I tried following the instructions
to run pre vista software. I have tried about all options including running
as administrator. I keep getting an error saying that the computer can not
open a window. Any ideas?

Re: compatibility

It would be helpful to know which games you are trying to run. Each game is
different, and someone may of gotten one or more of them to run and can tell
you how.
