  • Run old CD on Windows 10

    My dad has an old Scrabble CD that finally quit cooperating with Windows 10, even in compatibility mode. Anything else I can try? My dad loves his Scrabble! This one had such a nice, easy interface for him to use.

    You could install a virtual machine running windows 7 or 8, whatever OS worked with the game. Then you could tell that virtual machine to access the cd drive and play it from there. You would need an install disk for the OS as well as a license. This article will walk you through the setup of the VM.
