Hi! Could you post more of your system specs to your profile, please? That helps answering.
What error messages do you get (if any) when you try to start the games?
Also, have you checked that you have the latest drivers to your system?
Uh yeah... Well, your profile says that you have Windows XP Pro 32-Bit. And you're posting this on Windows 7 Forums; so are you dual-booting Windows XP and Windows 7?
Another thing that might cause the problem is that you've installed the games on XP and then are trying to play them in 7.
Lots of questions! Hope you can answer them!

if you installed the games using XP you need to reinstall them under windows 7.

Exactly. As I already said:

You'll have to reinstall the games you're trying to play in Windows 7.
