Old Games on Vista by
John Sisker
I'm sure this question has been asked before. However, is there a way to get
older Windows 95, 98 and/or XP programs to run on a Vista computer? I can't
even get them to load.

Vista Basic, Nvidia 6100 graphics and Zuma Deluxe by
RalfG[_3_]
Setting up a new PC here (eMachines H5270) and installed Zuma Deluxe. The
game is playable but the motion becomes quite jerky whenever the on screen
action becomes more intense. Also the mouse leaves droppings when Zuma's
custom cursors option is enabled. The processor is a 2700Mhz Athlon and the
graphics chipset is years newer than the ATI card in the PC this one
replaces.
Has anyone else...
