I have this great but old battleground collection wargames from talonsoft, great napoleonic warfare games but i have a HUGE problem. I have windows XP and these old games only runs under 16-bit windows system....I have tried the windows compatibility utilities but it doesn'nt work...

Does any one know if i can emulate windows 16-bit for my xp or something??? Or is there a patch so that the games will run under my xp????

Help needed please i just love those games..... :flash: :beigeconf

first off i dont know if this is properly posted in the right spot? no-cd crack finder? well anyway, maybe these will help

try these two things, if that doesn't work, there is a good chance that windows xp won't run it since xp is a pure 32-bit OS and those are 16-bit games. so if those dont work, i dont know what to tell yah, maybe someoen else will know
