Windows 10: NFS PU Won't install but I can still play it, what?

No mater what I did I could not install Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed on Win10. Tried everything, copied CD to C-Drive, tried every comparability setting available, shut off Norton Security and no joy. Even though the game is 15 years old I still get a kick out of playing it. So I figured that I had nothing to lose by just coping the entire folder from a recent backup and giving it s try. It played with no problems. I guess 15 years ago games didn't write to the registry. I guess maybe the registry didn't exist then.

Need For Speed Carbon game doesn't work on Windows 10

*Original TItle: Nfs carbon

I still like to play old nfs games. I have a win7 machine that I upgraded to 10. Nfs carbon did work on win7 but now not anymore on win10. The game installs fine but when in open the game, a window pops up saying log in as admin and try again. My Windows
account has all admin privileges. Also i have nfs prostreet that didn't work on win10 at first but later I installed it again and now it works fine. I keep win10 constantly updated. Is nfs carbon too outdated for win10? Is there any other way I can get carbon
to run?

 

Game is running slowely on my Laptop.

Sir/Madame:

I used to play Assassin Creed 3 and NFS Most Wanted 2012 in my Dell laptop (windows 10) with no problem. And then a few days ago I was installed FIFA 2014 game on the same laptop then ,the Assassin creed and NFS started to run very slowly. Then I Uninstalled
the FIFA game ,but the Assassin creed and NFS still remain in slow speed not running with normal speed.

How to solve this problem ?

My Laptops Specification

Windows 10 (64 bit)

Got it working on Win7 after a load of fannying around, think Win10 is some thing else.

 

If you have a image copy of the drive PU was installed from Win7 just copy the entire PU folder to wherever you've install you games unde Win10. It worked for me so there's no reason it wouldn't work for you. You might need to give the exe admin rights. Apparently PU didn't need to write anything to the registry to run. Let me know if it works for you.
