I tried to run X-COM on it an the screen went wild, i colud hear the game very well, but the image was compressed on the top of the screen... I would like to know a way to solve this problem, and to slow down the processor, because a friend of mine said that the scroll speed is too fast when running this game with powerfull new processors, he tried to run it witrh dosbox, but it didn't work because it is a Windows version.
Some users reported success through disabling hardware scaling in their graphics card options.

Otherwise, just use the DOS version of the game under DOSBox.

Another problem appeared when I tried to install Wizardry vii... for WinVista isn't compatible with Daemon Tools... I would like to play these games in my new laptop, so I need the some help...
Wizardry VII is a DOS game, so use DOSBox to run it. Incidentally, DOSBox features an integrated virtual drive functionality through the IMGMOUNT command.
