    I tried running it from a copy I took off the disk. When I have the time, I'll try installing it from the disc.

    is there a pinball game for windows seven?
    Try this :) PinBall (first reply has a method that doesn't require an XP disc, just an XP computer & a flash drive)

    Does anyone have the pinball game so that I can download it from somewhere ? I really liked that game and I'd love to have it again.

    How do I do install something using compatibility ?
    Kylehimself is correct; if the CD-ROM does not launch an install process on insertion, then right-click the CD-ROM in your Computer folder and select Explore. Right-click the game's .exe and select Properties. Switch to the Compatibility tab and change the Compatibility to Windows 95. Click OK.

    Let me know if that works...

    EDIT: To clarify, it might be an old enough game that it doesn't install, but simply runs off the CD-ROM. In that case, follow the instructions in this post.
    I didn't work. I set the compatability for both the program and the installer. Nothing happened. It just told exactly what it told me every time I tried to make it work - I need and x86 or x64 version of the program. I don't know what to do. I really like this game but I have no way of playing it. It's called Dominate. By the way, follow what instructions in which post ?

    I meant follow the instructions from earlier in that same post. But it sounds like that didn't work.

    I can't find any information on Dominate, but I have a suspicion it might be able to run in MS-DOS, in which case you can try using DOSBox, a free emulator that works in Windows 7. Let me know if that gets you anywhere...

    I got DosBox, but it's the most confusing thing I've ever seen. I've never used DOS before. I've been a MAC guy....until now. Not by choice, mind you. How do I run a program with DOSBox ?

    Update : I just found some instructions, but it doesn't work. It took me a while to figure it out, but it's not a DOS game. It has to run under Windows. Windows sucks.

    Yeah, I was afraid of that. Is there any more information you can give us about the game, other than its name and what platform it's designed for? Even the developer/publisher would be enough to help...

    The game is called Dominate. It is on a disc called Galaxy Of Games 2 - Over 300 Games For Windows. Compatible with Windows 3.1 & Windows 95. It's made by either Rom Tech or Galaxy Of Games. Both names are on the cd.

    Well that helped narrow it down to the actual product at least... but no dice on support information. The only other thing I can think of would be to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise, or Ultimate, download XP Mode, and try to run the CD there. But I don't blame you if you don't feel it's worth all that :)
