Hello - I got an old game CD that runs on Windows 98. I have Vista. Is
there any way I can run the CD?

Thanks,

Dan

It may work in "compatibility" mode. Find the executable, right click
it, go to properties, select the "compatibility" tab, tick "run this
game in compatibility mode", scroll down to Windows 98, select apply,
then ok, and then see what happens.

Good luck.

Have you tried just running the game?
