Recoil Installation

Garrett
On the list of games, Recoil is shown as being compatible with Windows 2000. Unfortunately, an error message stating that Windows 95 or 98 is required pops up when I try and install it. How do I get around that?.

Problem installing games

PCNewbie
After 15 years on a Mac, I'm the happy but woefully ignorant recipient of a Sony Vaio PCV-RX551 (1. 6/80) running Win XP. To my huge disappointment, this spiffy new computer won't install games, specifically Baldur's Gate II Shadows of Amn and No One Lives Forever.

Need for Speed 3 (Win2K)

Xain
Does anyone know how to get NFS3 working under Windows 2000 SP2? NTCompatible gives a file to download that patches the installer, but it doesn't work because my NFS3. exe and setup. ins are the wrong size (presumably it's for the US version only).
