    Installing old Microsoft PC game


    Have downloaded an old PC game (2001) on my laptop for my grandchildren to use and everything successful until I try to run it. It requests I insert Disc 1 but then informs me that it cannot verify the disk

    Installing old Microsoft PC game

    Hello John2-FB,

    Tell us a bit more. What version of Windows are you using, what game are you trying to install, hardware that your PC has. Everything you can!

    Thanks!

    Minecraft bedrock telling me to unlock full game even though that I already bought it after getting new computer

    Noah, can you install the game on a different PC, or reinstall the game on your old PC if you still have access to it, and review if Minecraft Bedrock is accessible on a different machine?

    Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels DLC problem

    Ok I think we finally figured out my issue. I had more than 10 trusted computers listed on my Microsoft account. Even though I had (originally) only installed it on a single computer, this was causing the licensing to not let me play it. Weird thing was that it installed and played on my Xbox AND my old gaming PC that my daughter now has, just not on my newer gaming PC which I believe was the 11th machine added so it got blocked. I removed some old devices I no longer have and sure enough it worked. Weird!
