I have several games that worked fine on Win 8.1 but will not run on Win 10. e.g. - Deus x,
Hostile Waters (great game by Rage), Desperados etc. Compatibility doesn't help. Any ideas please?

Hi Wurry, welcome to the forums.

What happens when you try to run those games? If they work in Windows 8.1, they should work in Windows 10.

Are you running them via Steam? Are there any errors?

The original Deus Ex and Hostile Waters are something like 15 years old, so it doesn't surprise me that there are some problems - but it looks like there are ways to get these games working with a little tweaking:

Although that guide is for Windows 8, I imagine it'll work for Windows 10 too.
