Comment:
when I try to run some old games(indiana jones, pizza tycoon and vintage dosgames)in win xp, I get the following message: "one or more CON code pages invalid for given keyboard code" The programs run but the keys won't work properly (ex:numeric keypad and shifts)? Why? how can I fix this? I've tried to run them in compability mode in win xp, with no results. Try to play The Last Crusade without beeing able to kick nazi-ass... impossible!

This may or may not work, the games may even be too old for it, but give it a go. Right click the exe for the game, go to properties and compatibility tab, then run it in windows 95 compatibility mode and it's probably also worth running it in 256 colours and so below.
