How can I play old 90s games effectively on windows XP?

[Lørd Tøny]

I'm looking to play some very old games on my computer specifically Lego Island, SimCity, Tomb Raider, etc. It's very troublesome because the games do not work right anymore, I can get the games to load but there are times where the game is unresponsive. Does anyone know if there is some kind of method to improve the stability in these old games?

I'm not sure what OS you use, but can't you go to properties on the shortcut, go to compatibility and set it to the OS it is compatible with?

[Lørd Tøny]

That doesn't always work.

Well for some unknown reason the game works now. I don't know what's different from today and the last few months.




How can I even sure if Lego Island is working properly?
