games window requirements

[chris]

do games that have a windows 95/98/ME requirements,
does that mean that they will not work on xp? i just
purchased survivor and it installed fine but on the main
menu stage to start i can't click on play because there
is no mouse cursor. please help?

You need to use Compatibility Mode, Chris (nice name!). Check it out in
Help and Support by searching for Compatibility, and also take a look at
this information:

Also, make sure you visit the official web site for the game's producers and
check for any updates they may offer before attempting to run the game.
