If not download a program called DosBox, then mount your cd drive and hard drive within that - then run it.

Many games pre windows 98 era will just not run in modern windows due to them no longer offering a DOS emulator - I think the most recent OS to have a DOS emulator was seen on windows 98/2000 etc. DosBox is basically a DOS emulator and works well with XP/Vista and 7.

I play the original Need For Speed on it occasionally using Vista.

On a side note - the new F1 2010 is great - people complain about the bugs, but tbf unless you do nothing but play it or read reviews, you would never know.

I must say do like playing old games as childhood ruled.
