I have a lot of games I cannot play on win 2000. I am especially fond of them.
How can I get them to play, please. They played fine on win 98 but won't
play on 2000 and some won't even load!
I have windows 2000 Professional

Hi,

Install the latest SP for 2000 and try installing or playing those
games using Compatibility Mode. (Start / Help for more info).
