I have many very old pc games. Kings quest series, journeyman turbocharged etc. I have windows vista on my computer it will not recognize or play these games. Most of the games were made between 1993-1999. Many od the boxes say can be played on windows 95 or 98. What is the Most recent version of windows I can purchase that will play these older games?

Or is there something I can do in the os that will allow it to read and play them?
