longbow2 was made for windows 95, my new comp. has windows xp and when I pulled out this old game and tried to put it on wind.xp it would not load the direct x and therefore would not finish the install, is there a way to play this old game on newer computers as it was one of my favorites that I haven't played in years.

Right-click the exe, props, comp tab, check "run...", select win95, ok, like so:
