Back when we bought our old EMachines EMonster 500 Desktop it came with a game called Expendable developed by RAGE software for Windows 98. I recently found the disc and tried installing it on my new Vista Dell XPS laptop and it installs fine but when I try to play it things get messed up and it crashes on the first level loading screen back to the desktop saying something about "go has stopped working". Can anybody help?

With windaz XP..if you right click on the shortcut and select properties, there is a compatibility tab that allows more options for the game to run. Perhaps fista has the same?

Cheers

it seems like a dos game. windows xp does not have dos, and maybe vista doesn't too. there is a dos emulator for xp called dosbox, but i dont know for vista. serch for dos box it might be for vista too.
