House of the Dead PC CD-Rom Games.

Hey guys.  I want to get these House of the Dead 1, 2, 3, for the PC CD-Rom.  Do these 3 games work with Windows XP.  Also do they work with the ACT Labs Light Gun?  Also which ones need no CD cracks?

  I have 2 and 3.  Both these games work fine in Xp for me.

Just as it is,

I doubt you'll have problems getting any versions to run.  If you do, just run them in compatibilty mode (right click on shortcut icon, go to properties, click on compatibility tab), or if its really old and runs on DOS, then just get DOSBox.

I only have HOTD2 and it works perfectly with the ActLabs guns.
Check out the 'troubleshooter':

If you do, just run them in compatibilty mode

   Do you really get a lot of success with this feature?  Just curious.  Maybe I am using it wrong, but it has only worked on one program I have.

 Thanks

I've only had to use it on one program a couple years ago and it worked for that one.  I have no idea how often it usually works though.
