I have a great PC with 64 bit Win 10 OS. I have CFS 3 installed from the You tube video fix. But for the life of me, I cannot find any assistance to make my copy of CFS 2 actually load. I click on the Icon and , voila' , I see the little Win 10 rotating circle for a few seconds and then NOTHING! I have a Mosquito program that really get my motor running that was an add-onn for CFS 2. What help can I expect. Every CFS version that I have ran FINE with Win XP!

Have you run it in compatibility mode?

The way to do it is to get a second hard disk drive and install XP on that. The you can dual boot to the XP drive. Then you install CFS2 on that drive. Create shortcut on desktop of CFS2 exe. Done.

 

Or, you can get Oracle's Virtual Box. There are videos on YouTube on how to get & install version of XP for Virtual Box (called XP Mode). YT Link:

. You can run CFS2 and a lot of other 'old' games on the virtual box. I don't have, or LIKE, any CFS version. Why? I got FS9 & FSX Accel. Good luck.
