Damaramu 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2005 So I'd like to buy Wolfenstein 3D for my laptop. The laptop is brand new and it runs on Windows XP. I heard that if i wanted to buy a lot of old games like W3D that I'd have to do some kind of crazy configuring to get it to work on XP. Does anyone know how I would do this or what I have to do to have old games run on XP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are certain DOS games that have problems with XP but Wolf3D shouldn't be one of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Leelee Report post Posted November 2, 2005 It's not that involved... Right click the program that you want to play, and go to properties. Then, compatibility. Then, click make this program compatible with Windows 95, 98, NT, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
