Receiving the message: "this disc is not compatible with my Windows 7", when you try to use a USB floppy drive to load Microsoft Entertainment pack.

Original title: cannot install Microsoft Entertainment pack on windows 7?  Can you help me?

Have the old Microsoft Entetainment pack diskette... Bought a USB floppy drive and tried to load.  Received message that the disk is not comnpatable with my Windows 7 operating system.  If anyone can help?

The games were made for 16 bits and last years run natively on XP.

If you have Windows 7 Professional, you could install XP Mode and then install the games in XP Mode, the games were not heavy on graphics and should run ok.

This requires that the XP mode will recognize the floppy USB drive...

    Hi the prey,

    ·         What is the brand and model of the computer?

    You should check the settings of the computer BIOS (Basic Input\Output System) to boot from the CD/DVD. Check the manual or the support of the computer Web site for the same.

    Note: Be careful when you change the BIOS settings. The BIOS interface is designed for advanced users, and it is possible to change a setting that can prevent your computer from starting properly.

    I understand that I am under a 64 bit OS, but is it possible to get this program to run? I was wondering if anyone has tips :)

    Hi Bcopeland,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Based on the information, you are trying to install and use an old ms - dos program based in Windows-7 Ultimate 64-bit.

    The problem is a software that was created for Windows 95, 98, and Windows XP has no way to work correctly with an operating system that didn't even exist when the software was written. However, the error message you get normally means that you have a 32-bit software that you are trying to install on a 64-bit system.

    You can check the compatibility of the program with Windows 7, in the Compatibility Center.

    Compatibility Center

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    a. click right on the program.

    b. click Properties.

    c. click on the tab compatibility.

    d. Select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or whatever to use the system, the program was executed successfully.

    Here is an article that gives you more information on this:

    Make older programs in this version of Windows

    If the problem persists, you can get in touch with the software vendor to see for the latest version of the program to use the same system of 64-bit Windows 7.

    Hope the helps of information.

    Hello

    Do a clean install of XP with the XP disk provided by Dell, if you.

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/OperatingSystems/SS/instxpclean1.htm

    If you do not have your XP disk, you can contact Dell and ask them to send you a XP disc.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the order of startup and startup disk:

    Vista installation was able to destroy this option of relocation:

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall XP back on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Hello

    1. which edition of Windows are you using? Is - this edition is 32-bit or 64-bit?
     
     
    Given that the game is compatible with Windows 7, I suspect that the conflict can be 32-bit or 64-bit architecture.
    The link below shows the compatibility of this game with Windows 7.
     
     
    Method 1.
    We must ensure that the edition of the game must correspond with the operating system.
    If you use 64-bit in this game, you need the 64-bit Windows to install it.
    Method 2.
    If the above information matching I you recommend to start the computer in clean condition and then try to install the game.
    See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

  • Win2K8 - this processor is not compatible with the 64-bit mode

    This is my first shot to create a virtual machine VMware

    We just got a new server in a data center

    My plan is to run a Server 2008 ontop of a host of Server 2008 virtual machine

    First I used a converter for P2V - this bit has been successful, so basically I took a picture of the host and converted to a Virtual Machine.

    I put the image to use 1 core of the dual core CPU and the memory (4gig) half and half of disk space on drive D (50 GB)

    Then I installed virtual server 2, and any

    Then I installed the thing that makes you see the window in Internet Explorer (some may be active x thing?)

    In any case, at the time of starting the server VM, I get the message:

    I'm a little confused on this, the server is located in a datacenter somewhere and I don't think that the CD option is viable, because they will probably be responsible for a lot of things to do

    Any ideas what I should try?

    the cpu is 64-bit but because I split at the image, I'm not sure if that is break things

    Any advice appreciated

    Thank you

    You can run virtual servers, they simply can be 64-bit because your processor doesn't support VT
