Is there a way to play ween: the prophecy on xp? I
played it on windows 3.11 and just found it again but it
doesn't seem to work on xp?
 
Spend $10 and go get XP game. Sierra Thrillride pinball
is the best pinball game you will ever play. Multiple
screens and lots of options. Keyboard or gamepad.
 
Hi Lee,

When a game is a DOS game, it could work using the Multiboot
bootdisk from: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~lpcd/downloads.html
and always check at fileplanet.com to see if there's a patch available.

With DOSBOX you can emulate a DOS computer on your XP desktop:
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/information.php Or try MS Virtual PC:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/virtualpc/downloads/trial.asp
which allows you to install DOS or to run any operating system inside XP.

If you prefer to explore other advanced methods, here are two excellent
tutorials I've found on the subject: http://www.dosgames.com/xphints.php
and: http://home.earthlink.net/~angeldancer27/XpGameList.htm :-)
