I'm not sure if this the best place to ask this since it's a technical issue, but I'd figure I'd try. I have CDs for the games "Arthur's Computer Adventure" and "Arthur's Adventures with D.W.". I was hoping to run the games on my computer and get info and screenshots and whatnot, but I've run into some complications. I think Arthur's Computer Adventure would run fine on a Windows XP, so as soon as I get the CD drive on my Windows XP computer I'll try it out. Arthur's Adventures with D.W., on the other hand, is for Windows 95/98 if I'm not mistaken. I noticed there are pages on the wiki for some of the other games that came out in the mid-90s, like Arthur's Birthday. Does anyone know of any methods for running these older games? (Aside from purchasing a Windows 95/98 computer)
