hi guys...

wonder if anyone can help. i bought a game for my daughter to play on the pc. it is running windows xp home, but the game is a bit old and required windows 98 to run. so i went into program compatability wizard and picked the game from a list andchose the windows 98 then clicked next. the game played fine but after finishing and exiting the game the screen went what i can only describe as fuzzy and would not do anything. i pressed in the front button on the pc to restart it as it would not let me shut it down properly. the pc base came on but the screen has stayed black. any help would be ideal...thanks
fletch

hi fletch,

you can try downloading a program called DosBOX, which emulates DOS (Windows 98 was designed to load from DOS, so this should work).

If you google it, it should be in the top 3 returns
