Is there a way to add IPX support to Windows 7 for older programs, like games?

No. Microsoft stopped natively supporting IPX 6 years ago with the release of Win2003 (see: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc784723.aspx). Novell stopped supporting IPX with the release of Windows Vista two years ago. From their Novell Client SP1 documentation:http://www.novell.com/documentation/vista_client/vista_client_admin/index.html?page=/documentation/vista_client/vista_client_admin/data/b87phor.html1.2.1 Novell Client for Windows XP/2003 Features Not Included in the Novell Client for Windows VistaThe following Novell Client for Windows XP/2003 features are not included in the Novell Client for Windows Vista: <snip> IPX/SPX protocols and API libraries.</snip>If your game requires IPX, it's not older, it's old. :) Dual-booting or running in a virtual machine would be a better option.Ned Pyle [MSFT] - MS Enterprise Platforms Support - Beta Team
