    PC game for win XP,is it suitable for win7?


    Hi.

    I have a computer game called "Racing simulation 3",by Ubisoft.Its meant for windows xp.Is it possible to install that game on windows 7 home premium? Are there any problems I'm likely to encounter if I try to install on win7?

    Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Chris.

    Welcome to the Seven Forums

    I would suggest trying to install it and see what happens, I think the worst thing that happened is that it won't work.
    First I would create a System Restore Point - Create

    You also may want to look at this tutorial Compatibility Mode
