How do you get older games to run on windows 8, which are made for xp

I tombraider games from 1998 to 2010 and none of them play also have Indiana Jones makes any game I tried failed, it will load, but within seconds, he locks upwards and the only way to get my computer going again stops

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.
