724917 2008-12-02 03:34:00 i had this issue with ashes cricket 97 designed for win95. to run it properly i had to run in compatibility mode. because the game is so old and the graphics relatively poor it wont work otherwise, for me anyway. does it actually play?? GameJunkie (72)
724918 2008-12-02 03:34:00 I found this on the internet . Give the following options a go . . .

Set your desktop settings to 640 by 480 and 256 colours .

1) Click on the Start button > Settings > Control Panel .

2) Double-click on the Display icon .

3) Click the Settings tab .

4) Modify the Colour Palette to say 256 colours and the Desktop Area to 640 by 480 .

5) Click on the Apply button once the changes have been made and follow the on-screen prompts to finish the process .
