Game's don't play or freeze or crash to desktop

[Dave]

Every game I have been installing has been doing the
above. All the games are XP compatible. Help? I thinks XP
sucks.

Which games are they in particular?

Updating your video drivers would be the first thing to try, if you're not
sure of the hardware in your machine check out
http://windows.dasmirnov.net/guides/hardware.php you'll need the video card
manufacturer and model in order to work out what drivers you need.

Once you've got that check out their respective websites and check out the
support section or download section for 'drivers'. www.ati.com and
www.nvidia.com are common ones.

I thinks XP sucks.

www.redhat.com try getting your games running on that.
