RE: Column: Getting Older Games to Run on Windows XP

I am trying to get my old CD of Activision's MechWarrior 2 to run on WIndows
XP SP2. I tried messing with the compatability modes, and that just gets me
a black screen. I tried CPUKiller3 and that only did the same thing, but
slower. Does anyone know how to get this program to run on XP?
