Nothing seems to work.
I have tried installing battlefield 2142, counterstike source, age of empires
3, even oregon trail 2, and nothing seems to work. I know my hardware is

just be a complainer, I want to know if there was anything in Vista I was
supposed to inst...

Battlefield 2142 failed to run, what else?
Hi,
This is like the 5th forum I have been to for help. I bought a brand new
computer today with windows 32bit installed and I bought a copy of
battlefield 2142 to try the computer out. The computer I bought is a brand
new computer designed for gaming, that is in no matter the question, and yes
I have experience with gaming and didn't take their word for it when it came
to hardware....

Minesweeper doesn't respond
Hi,
I see reading the posts just now that many have had the same problem I have
had for two months or so.
I play minesweeper and about 70% of time it locks up, and just when I'm on
the home straight, sometimes with a world record in my sights!
What was or is the solution to make it run normally reliably?
Help would be great. Many thanks,
Peter Davies...

DOS Fullscreen issue NTVDM with Vista... Please fix this......
Hello,
I think Windows Vista 32-bit OS has an issue because it won't run DOS
fullscreen apps although the option to do so is in the properties.When I call
a DOS app that tries to run in full screen, I receive an error telling me
that It doesn't support fullscreen.That's ridiculous since the NTVDM used in
Windows XP is the same of Windows Vista.Are you planing to fix this issue in

one thing - despite the fact it correctly identifies all my hardware,
