My Bearware Millennium Game Pack worked on Win98 and WinXP but won't on Windows 7 - can you give me detailed instructions on what I need to do to make it work. Especially for the Cherries game. Thanks so very much!!! -Terri

There are some games and a lot of other sofrware that will not run on newer microsoft OS like windows vista, 7 and 8.

Unfortunately, due to changes in the OS and how programs run, a program written for Windows 98 will not run under Windows 7 directly.

Even the compatibility mode will probably not work unless your version of Bicycle Pinochle for Windows was written for XP as well as Windows 98. (The WinXP version would possibly run under the Windows 7 32-bit version; it won't work under the 64-bit OS. To find your version of Windows 7, click Start > Control Panel > System and Security > System. If the version title ends with x64, you have the 64-bit OS. Otherwise, you have the 32-bit version.)

You need to either upgrade your game software or get an older version of Windows running somehow. This could be a virtual computer (runs inside your Windows 7 computer if your hardware permits it), a second machine or a dual boot computer. For Windows 98, you will need a licensed version of the OS for any method. Check a nearby Windows User's Group to see if anyone there has the OS.

If your version of Pinochle could run under Windows XP and you have Win7 Pro or Ultimate (or upgrade to them), you can run a virtual version of XP for free. In this case, download and install (in order) Virtual PC and XP mode from Microsoft. Then install the software in the XP computer as if it were the only computer running. (The compatibility mode didn't work inside XP mode for software written for Windows 2K so I doubt a Win98 program will work.)

An XP version of Bicycle Pinochle was offered by Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/games/bicycle/card/ . A Windows 7 version of Single Deck Pinochle is here: http://www.sac-irca.com/pino.html .

I wish that I had better news for you.

I'm pretty sure Bearware is a virus. Please remove Bearware and search for a different way to play games. I suggest CCleaner for the virus.

Hi
If you are asking is the game is compatible to Windows 7 Yes it is compatible to a windows 7 32 bit or 64 bit.
Thank you for using Fixya.

Hi,

This D-Link AirPlus G DWL-G122 802.11g/b is not compatible with the windows 7 OS. Its compatible only with Win98, WinME, Win2K, WinXP.

Thanks & Regards,
Prema.

It may or may not work, but try installing as Administrator and setting the program's EXE into "Compatability Mode for XP SP2", and also, running as Administrator.
Windows 7 just doesn't want to support any software/hardware over like a year old... Drivers are a HUGE issue. Especially for older stuff. Compatability Mode is one way round it but not always.

Also you will have to set to OFF digital Driver signing at bootup press F8, and at the bottom you will see driver signing.... EVERY TIME you boot you MUST set this OFF, or it will simply not work, thats if it does install anyway. You MUST have it OFF to install as well.
