configuring a game?

[Mim]

Hi, My operating system is XP, but I have an old CD-Rom
game that is Windows 95. How do I configure my computer
so I can play this game? Thanks!

This may or may not work

Right click on the game icom and select properties then
select compatibility then "run this game in windows 95
mode"

Hi again. I tried what you suggested, but when I right
click on the game icon, and go to properties, there is no
compatibility option. I looked carefully. Thanks anyway,
though. Anybody else have other suggestions?

You have to go to the start, accessories, program compatibility wizard.
Invoke it, then browse to the subject application and set it for WIN95
