Try the click with the right button on either the shortcut for the game or the actual .exe. Select properties, then go to the Compatibility tab. Then go to the section "Compatibility Mode" and check the box that says "run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select the option of Windows XP (Service Pack 3). Hit then just apply and exit the window and try to run the game. If it does not so inform the community.

How can I get the game controller that you want to correlate to the keyboard commands?
How can I get the game controller that you want to correlate to the keyboard commands?
You may need to use the profiling software that comes with any game controller you are using.
Some software controller has a library of game titles with default button/key configurations that
You can change in the software according to your desires.
-The software will need to navigate you to the games executable ( .exe ) from in the profiling software, which allows for the profile that you create in order to be recognized when you load the game in question.
You can create orders, or simply assign a key combination, of a particular button on the controller
and save the profile.
-If the controller does not have a profiling software available for download, you may be stuck
with some default orders can work with this controller and as a monopoly$ insinuated oft
the controller XBOX games PC as a default configuration, a few years ago, it could mean
your controller can be very useful if it is not programmed to emulate the XBOX controller.
-If your controller is programmed to emulate the XBOX controller (like many recent controllers)
It should be just a matter of changing the configuration in game controller options.

How do you get a Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro keyboard work with Windows 7?
How do you get a Microsoft Natural Keyboard Pro keyboard work with Windows 7 on a Dell Inspiron 620? I got an adapter so it connected to the USB port, but the computer does not recognize it.
Hello
It seems to be that the driver is not compatible with Windows 7, so I suggest you to download and install the keyboard driver in Windows 7 by choosing the level of compatibility of Windows XP:

Impossible to get Pogo games to run
I am running XP SP3 and MSE, now I can't launch Pogo games requiring Java (get an error saying that can not load images) that they suggest that I check the settings for the firewall (Windows) and security (MSE) antivirus settings. Don't know what to change to make me run these games.
I was able to play these games before I made the mistake of installation of Registry Booster and speed up my PC of Uniblue and messed up my system. After uninstalling these two, I can't get the games to run.
This probably isn't a MSE question and probably not a problem of Windows Firewall.
And you have probably understood your problem, but it will be difficult for you to determine the changes made by the Registry Booster and "Speed Up My PC."
Have you disabled temporarily MSE to see if the program will then work? Open MSE, settings tab, select real-time protection, and uncheck 'enable real-time protection '. Make sure that you reenable the MSE.
Have you disabled the Windows FW to see if the program will then work?
Have you thought about a system restore to the day before where you installed these products the registry change.
