Last Call for XP

Chernabog · 06-30-2008, 08:49 PM

I just hate the fact that games I have installed on my compy (or old favorites) WILL NOT RUN AT ALL on Vista. Gamespot did a feature on that a while back, most games totally bit it in Vista. Sucks. I'll be on XP till my current compy explodes, or until a stable 64-bit OS becomes the norm.

Dear Cherny,

This may or may not help you: I have installed an MS product called Virtual PC that allows you to install any operating system inside a "sandbox". I have successfully run MS-DOS programs from the '80's with it no problemo. You can even share folders with the sandbox and your actual OS for file access.

Love and hugs,

The Stoat XXX.
