How to get Slam!, a 16-bit game, to run on Windows 98

slamtechnical-issueswindows-98

I have a few games that are 16-bit that I want to try on Windows 98, I know that 98 supports 16-bit programming, but the one game that I am using to test out keeps crashing. The error message I'm getting is:

This program has preformed an illegal operation, if this problem persists, please contact the manufacturer.

Is there any way to fix or at least improve the quality on them?

(The game I am using is a freeware game called Slam!)

I think I found the problem. I was unzipping it on another computer, then I put it on the floppy and on the 98. The newer unzipping program wasn't agreeing with the older computer.
