Games XP on Windows 7?
I have just a basic question,
my Windows XP games run on windows 7? for example Elder Scrolls Morrowind and Oblivion, Fallout 3 neverwinter nights, Dreamfall, I get to love these games and don't wish to consine them at the back of the Cabinet.
Oblivion and Fallout operate on 32-bit and 64-bit.
Microsoft has Dreamfall, Morrowind, and some games Neverwinter Nights listed as incompatible with Windows Vista. Although I've played Morrowind very well on Windows Vista 32 bit.
You can take a look at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/ , now, certainly it is for Vista but Windows 7 is almost 100% backward compatible with Windows Vista, so it will give you a good indication. If anything, however, the list is more conservative that I need to be, I've played a few games that is listed as incompatible. Paul Smith - MVP for Windows desktop experience... I crawled off NNTP - for now. Detachment Aldershot, United Kingdom. On the internet at windowsresource.net and dasmirnov.net. Please post back to let us know what works and what does not. :-)

You will need to do an internet search to find games that supports the accelerometer. Then do a check on the Windows 7 Compatibility Center to check if these games are compatible.

No games after installing Windows 7
Why don't have games installed on Windows 7 on the computer of my spouse (clean install of Windows 7)? She plays games online, she wants just to return the ancient games of Vista.
If you talk about the default games then you must press the Windows key, type in "windows features", and then click turn on or off windows features. Then in the window that appears, make sure the games box is checked and click OK. Games must return.

Beash19,
The first thing to do, if you have not already, is to update your video card driver. Once this is done, if the problem persists, contact the manufacturer of game for a possible fix or the update of the game. If this is the only program that he comes up with seems so they need provide a type of update. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

Vista Games work on Windows 7?
I have a lot of games and most of them are for XP and Vista. These games work on Windows 7?
Most of the games work in Windows 7 (they make for me in any case), you also comptibility mode if they do not work exactly right. I saw a few posts about games that don't work, but they were for the most part, OLD games, or video driver problems.
