Look the specific game up to see if it's possible and how to do it.

Try the '98 compatibility mode in XP & see what happens. BTW, what game is this?

I have Risk 2 On my Win XP machine and it ran fine... I think i may have changed the setting to run with Win 98... Right click on Game.exe and choose the last tab and change to run with win 98... if my instructions are wrong, tell us and ill find out how to do it properly... i CBF right now...lol
