Running older games on Windows XP

In some cases, there's nothing you can do to get games designed for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me to run on Windows XP. Famously, EA Sports games prior to the 2001 incarnations (including titles like NHL 99 and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2000) just will not run on Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Period.
But with some effort and luck, you can work around problems. The first thing to do is to consult the game documentation. Look for hints about running the game in a pure 32-bit environment. Or you may find out that it's simply incompatible.
Next, look for patches and updates for your game. Bring the game up to its very latest version. Read the Readme file that comes with the update to see if it specifically addresses the problems you're having trying to run the game on Windows XP.
Finally, check out the Web at large. Do a Web search for your game's title followed by Windows XP. Hit fan sites, message boards, and any other resources that you can find that indicate whether anyone has had success running your game under Windows XP. Read how he or she accomplished this.
