Windows 3.1 entertainment pack games question please

[kraut]

I am not a big games player but I still the the simple games that were
in the Windows 3.1 entertainment pack games and have been able to play
them on every system up through XP.

Will they work on Vista or am I finally going to loose them??

TIA

Perhaps on Vista x86 but not natively on x64. You may need to use a virtual
machine.

If they're 16bit, kiss them goodbye.

HOWEVER: VMWare is free so you could get that, create a Virtual PC and
install Win98/Win3.1 on that and then the games.

OR, you could see if there are any freeware/open source equivalents.
