Old game - new laptop

[NFS]

have you go the box it will say what versions of windows it can run on then try and run it in the right compatibility mode what bit is your windows 7 i.e. 32x or 64x?

i think you would need to run an older o/s inside your windows 7 browser. im not exactly sure how but i know it can be done.

Yeah its called a virtual machine, I use them all the time at work. Popular clients are VMware and VNC.

If you've got a machine powerful enough to run Win7 then running a virtual machine with say 98 on it will be no problem

Theyre called processor architectures mate, the x64 is the newer more advanced technology that Windows 7 is able to make use of, just FYI

Runs from windows 95 in dos mode.

Windows 7 64-bit (home premium)

does the game run in dos if so get dosbox

[Mawbster]

http://www.dosbox.com/ rread that the game runs in win 95 dos

dos box is a really excellent program and can do a lot of things if you read the instructions through.

It also is a lot faster than any win 95 computer.

Ive had a go at dosbox all afternoon, seems really to complex for me.

Currently I have Virtual Machine but struggling to boot 95, cannot read boot medium.

dos box is really not hard to use mate
