Original title: Old game ( Ace Ventura) doesn't work on win 7 64 bit version?
I'm trying to play the old game which I still like it, Ace Ventura; Pet Detective but unfortunately this game no longer works on the windows 7 64 bit version. I tried the DOSBox 0.74 just to check if this could help me but DosBox showed me error that the game requires windows to start. I think its because the dosbox is made to run only old DOS based game. Anyways, When ever I try to run the application file ( file has an icon but it doesn't now on windows 7) it shows me an error as 'The version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running. Check you computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher.' Does anybody has idea how I can run this program. I believe the game is 16 bit. Is there anyway to run the 16 bit games on 64 bit windows?
