Default Riven: The sequel to Myst
I got this game like 4 years ago when I had my old pentium II Compaq and i played it on there and it was awesome! Now that I have XP im afraid that riven isnt compatible with this type of OS. I have installed it but everytime i double click on the "autoplay" icon or try to run the program it doesnt work... Any suggestions?

Have you tried any of the Compatibility Modes?
