Try to install the old game of window 95 on my windows 7...

I have an old windows 95 game called Shivers.  I would like to install on my windows 7, I have home premium.

I tried a lot of things.
I tried to click with the right button on setup.exe/properties and making it compatible with different versions, also tried to have windows try and do it for me.
When I try first to install the game I get the error, not compatible with the 64-bit version.
After fiddling around, it seems now that the game will start to install, the screen resolution goes down and I get a black window, as I have had with other games when they begin to install.  However then goes black screen and I have nothing :(
I do not so much, but I've been looking for this game for a long time, I finally found and bought without thinking that he would not be able to run on my system...
I'm pretty OK with the computer, but when someone answers I need much instruction step by step please.
Thank you

(1) it is a 16-bit game and does not work on 64-bit Windows. Reported, it installs and runs with a few minor adjustments * 32-bit XP, Vista and Windows 7 (* compatibility setting: Windows 95, ignore any request for 'system test', set your screen resolution, etc..).

(2) it MAY be that even a BACK emulator fails to run it because it uses a Sierra-own game engine (SCI) that must be supported, too. It is not included in the list of compatibility of DosBox, and it comes in the ScummVM forums (another emulator BACK) as "pending".

(3) as a last resort, you can try to install & run the game in a virtual machine. If you have any disk installation for Win 3.1 or Windows 95, the virtual machine would allow you to play the game in the environment he has created. Windows 7 Professional allows you to download a free version of Windows XP Professional SP3 to work with Windows Virtual PC, but use a VM free as MS Virtual PC 2007, VirtualBox, etc. is certainly less expensive (even if you can buy a copy of Win 3.1 or 95).

    Seems to be a problem with McAfee Antivirus. I would like to start trying to update McAfee to the latest version and see if that allows you to install the updates. If this does not work, then try disabling McAfee and see if updates through. If this isn't the case, then you must remove McAfee and install another AV, such as MSE http://www.microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/ and see if updates through.

  • Try to install the Theme hospital on windows 7 - HELP

    I inserted the CD, but no matter what I do it do not open and let me install the program, I tried to run through a link in the control panel that says "run programs made for previous versions of windows", but it does not work, or nothing happens.

    What should I do, this is a classic game and I miss playing.

    Any help will be grateful

    Hi SamanthaFourie,

    The game Theme hospital is not compatible with Windows 7, according to the Windows 7 Compatibility Center, check out the link for more information below.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?l=en-us&s=theme%20hospital%20&type=software

    You also tried compatibility mode and even that does not work, you will need to contact the seller of game for more information.

    For additional support, post your request in the game vendor's Web site using the link below.

  • Can I install the old version of Windows XP of Freecell on Windows 7?

    Hi - a simple/silly-we nowhave Windows 7 and its new version of FreeCell MS that we don't like.  The old version on our Windows XP Pro (2005) was much preferred.  The old version can be found & installed on our PC W7?

  • Frustration, try to install the CF 9 on Windows 7/IIS 7

    I'm trying to install the CF 9 (as a developer install) on Windows 7 Pro/32-bit and go crazy.

    , My box running IIS7 and the installation of the FC goes OK (I have to configure for all IIS sites). When I try to launch the administrator at the end of the installation I get a 404 error saying that index.cfm is not found (URL is http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/administrator/index.cfm). The file is there, I can see IT.

    I followed some messages on the Internet about the installation of IIS 6 management and ISAPI extensions. When I use the "Web Server Configuration" tool I can configure the IIS default Web Site without problem. However, when I try to lauch CF administrator after the release of the Configuration utility, I get the same error.

    Are there any settings or pointers that anyone can give on how to get this working (I have already installed Adobe Flash Builder and ColdFusion Builder and I want to get it going).

    Thanks in advance.

    If you haven't already done so, you can also install the CF 9.0.1 update, because it supports IIS7 without the need of IIS 6 compatibility features.

    I AM RUNNING WINDOWS VISTA HOME PREMIUM

    If you know the manufacturer of the game, you can try their site to see if they have a Vista patch for the game.  Some games have the protection against copying that is not compatible with Vista and you need a patch from the game manufacturer.  It is because the protection against copying of the game has been written especially for XP and will not function on Vista.  They are the only ones who can provide you with a work around if the compatibility options do not work for you.

  • Windows 7 compatibility with the old game

    I used the resolution of compatibility issues in Control Panel to install my old pc game (cake mania 2) it installs and the game plays fine until I have shut down the game and try to reopen it. The convenience store said detected incompatible application.

    the programmer of the game say they're working on an upgrade to it. but do not know when it will be available.

    What don't get me, is why he runs very well the first time. I can even uninstall. reinstall it with the convenience store and my saved game is still there, and the game works perfectly until I got close.

    I am confused? Any ideas?

    Hi empony,

    When you are working on your computer and install a new program, the installation suddenly fails. Now, you're left with a partly installed program. You try to install the program again, but you're unsuccessful. Or, maybe you have problems trying to remove an old program because the installation files are damaged.

    Download and install the Windows Cleanup utility to uninstall the game completely from the computer, and then start with a new facility.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/290301

    Once done with the uninstallation, you can install the game in Compatibility Mode and check if it works very well.

    Access the link below to install the game in Compatibility Mode.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows
     
    Also, make sure that you temporarily disable any Antivirus software on the computer.

    Make sure that you enable the security software after the attempt.
