I think Vista's too good for it. Old games were not made for new OSs. Which is why I never try installing old games on any of my computers. |

Apparently, Vista thinks that she is. |

It should remind itself that when it crashes then.  |

Change the resolution to something lower. See if that works. |

I got "The Neverood" to run on Vista. It installed, and bam, worked. Wasn't that a DOS game? |

Lame stereotyping, I think. I've never seen a computer running Vista or XP(or anything before) crash in my life. |

I was able to do the same, but I don't think it was DOS. I have noticed though that some games choose to work on vista while others don't for arbitrary reasons (most having to do with resolution). |
