Hi, phoogland!

Older products aren't compatible with newer OS. The best way you can play these games is probably by emulating a virtual PC. Try installing Windows 98 on a Windows Virtual PC.

Here's a link to a detailed manual: http://www.essjae.com/virtualization/WinVPC-InstallingWin98.pdf

If this didn't fix your issue please let me know. Hope this helped you!

There are no fix to that the windows 7 has a compatibility issue in software,applications or game. I think your game is to old to run on windows 7. The windows 7 compatible only to new games and not very old games.

This occurred due to 32 bit operating system. Your Windows XP was probably 32 bit, for check that, go to "My Computer" properties. And now, your Windows 7 is 64 bit operating system. That's why that game is not running. Try to load a fresh 32 bit Windows 7 to fix your problem.

If I am correct this game looks old, and if it is it probably isn't compatible with windows 7. Windows 7 is supposed to have a lot of backwards compatibility but it doesn't work so well just yet. Wait a bit and maybe microsoft will patch the OS to fix the compatibility problems, then you will be able to play your game.

Unfortunately not all games will work with newer versions of Windows even with the compatibility modes. Atari Scrabble is an older game, and Atari stopped providing updates for the game some time ago. At this point your best bet is to find a version of Scrabble that is compatible with Windows 7. Microsoft has a Windows 7 Compatibility page on their site. The website address that is below lists another companies version of Scrabble that will work with Windows 7. Check out your local PC game retailers or the Internet to find and purchase a copy or search to see if there are other versions that will work with Windows 7.

yo change folder name Video -> video1. You will succeed. :D

Windows 7 is nt based you will have to install that game under the program compatability wizard and even the sometimes they don't work.
You might also check with the software maker to see if they have a fix for that game that will make it work with windows 7
