If it doesn't work try the following:

Download this pack from Carolyn's: boardwalkerz.com/carolyn/vvccr/index.htm

Follow the instructions.
When installed open babyz, it might say "you have to restart", ignore it and continue, click on the yellow mic button on the pull-menu. It'll say it might not work properly. Ignore and continue.

It should now work!

Other Fixes

Right click on the Babyz.exe and change compatibility to 2000.

did you get things working Leanne?

Leanne, do you have any babyz files? I can send you a tester to put in the adoption folder?

Hmmmmm, I have no idea honestly. Hopefully someone else can help you out soon though!

When I put Babyz on my new Win7 computer a few years ago, I simply copied my babyz files from my old computer and then put them on my new computer desktop. Then I set the compatibility for Win 98 & ME and ran the game from the Settings to run in 256 colors from the Babyz.exe Properties. Then hit the Babyz.exe from the Babyz files and the game started right up just as I had it. Then I created a Babyz.exe short cut from the .exe I had just used and have not had any problems with the game these two or three years. Sometimes when I end a game I get a run time error. I don't know why, but it doesn't seem to hurt anything.

I finally found this game on Amazon,I was so excited to finally get to play it again after so many years. Well, I have Windows 7 now, and it will open the game but then completely freeze and crash. Is there any advice anyone can give me?! My email is [e-mail] thanks
