I have a work laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 graphics card in it. I need to do some travel, and of course want to load up a game or two to take with. I've tried Wizardry 8, Might and Magic 7, and Arcanum, but basically after loading the games will CTD. I assume this is due to the graphics - if that is so, is there any way to make older games work? (As a side not, I tried to load Fallout, but it wouldn't let me - incompatible with Win2000).

win2000 as i recall doenst work well with old games. especially if they need DOS. fallout 1 needs win95 or 98 at most i think heh.

do some search on the net for compatability problems with old games..
