Did you do the normal steps? Run as admin, run in compatibility mode, etc? You might need to turn of UAC as well.

More information please? Computer specs, operating system, which games, etc.

here's the steps i take to run older games:
1) try various compatability modes
2) try installing on XP mode (win 7 pro or ultimate required)
3) if all else fails, install on appropriate O/S in virtualbox
