Interesting piece of software

Postby Silverhaze on Sun Oct 17, 2004 6:28 pm

This is called vmware and it allows you to run virtual PCs. You can have a copy of WinMe or other operating systems running under XP.

It might solve some game compatibility problems you may be experiencing. Worth a try anyway if you got any issues.

Rommy could get that person with a dodgy version of windows to try it. THey may be able to run Ragnarok through it.

anyway heres a link.

Someone who's running Win98 would probably have a bit of trouble running an extra OS AND a game that rapes your RAM half the time. =\
