Hi Eve, I finally got some time tonight to look at those games. Hasbro Slingo I couldn't find a download link for -- must be rare. Lost Continent and Mini Golf Deluxe installed and played without me having to do much. Just had to run the setup.exe file on the CD and it ran normally from there. Like if you open up File Explorer and go to your CD drive like you did for the Yahtzee game, the setup program should be there. Matt Hi, First I Followed you instructions to install Ultimate Yahtzee. Works great. Thank You. Have not done Sierra Ultra Pinball Creep Night yet. I will do that later. I would like to also be able to install Sierra Ultra Pinball The Lost Continent I guess it would be similar to Creep Night. Other games I would like to install at Sierra Ultra Mini Golf Deluxe and Hasbro Slingo. Please let me know if you have instructions on any of the games above other than Creep Night which I know you have. Thank You, EVE

Hey, Matt. I wanted to ask, is there any chance that Dirt Track Racing from Ratbag can be run on Windows 7 and up?

Hey, yes it can. That's one of my favorite game series. You'll need to use a DirectX/Glide wrapper, but otherwise it should work good.

Any clues how to install it? Cause it's not letting me through normal means.
EDIT: Nevermind, installed it just fine, i'm guessing it installs it, when it feels like it as it gaves me error at times, but i'm facing a new problem everytime it tries to show main menu, it crashes, any ideas?
EDIT: FIXED IT!!!! Turns out my old nemesis DEP was the cause of crash. Tho DX wrapper doesn't work unfortunately as it shows black screen with lines instead of text. So nglide works just fine.

Ok, here's a challenge i couldn't figure it out as of now: Actua Soccer 3. It still crashes badly on my Windows 7 and i couldn't figure for the life of me, where the source of that crash is. And download link is this: www.myabandonware.com/game/actua-soccer-3-a4r

Yay a new challenge. What's the exact error you get, or do you get one?

i can't even launch the game despite obeying nglide's suggestion of putting it in Win 95 compatibility mode.

Madden 2000 for Windows 10 would be awesome.

Maarcis, can you even get it to install? So far it just tells me it won't run under Windows NT when I run setup. Just wondering if you got further than that. Guest, what issue are you having with 2000? If it's the 'run as administrator error' you could fix it by using a no cd crack. Download this file and unzip it to your Madden 2000 folder. Madden 2000 no cd linkYou would also need to install nGlide or a similar wrapper...then run the 3dfx version (madn3dfx.exe)

Yeah, i did manage to install Actua Soccer 3, just set the compatibility of Autorun.exe, Setup.exe and Isdel.exe to Windows 95 since the clue was "Windows NT systems".

I tried that first but it kept saying the same thing ... turned out I had to set Windows 95 on the autorun.exe file like you said. I just had the setup.exe one set before.
OK I added the dgvoodoo files (DDraw.dll, D3Dimm.dll, dgvoodoocpl.exe) to the folder and that got it to run, with some issues. Namely that it doesn't want to stay in fullscreen. I went into the control panel options and unchecked "Application controlled fullscreen/windowed state" as well as "Disable Alt-Enter to toggle screen state" and now by pressing Alt-Enter I can make it go fullscreen. Then you go to options inside the game, select D3D mode and whatever resolution you want.
The other anomaly though is that I have no sound at all in the game. No menu music, no sound effects, no beeps, no nothing.

Turn off the Windows 95 mode if it's still on. If I try it with dgvoodoo files in + compatibility mode, it crashes.
