| Coolness: 686285 | Just do a search for Abandonwarez. It sucks that winXP has no dos compatibility though. Then again... I could try and wet up this old p200... :) |

| Coolness: 300020 | winxp will run all of them. only problem is our comps are way too fast for some of them. Try frogger just for fun, its fucking ridiculous you cant even see the cars cuz they go so fast |

| Coolness: 194720 | yeah i experienced that with plenty games, even back in the days of win95/98...
there was this nifty util slowdown.exe that hung itself on interrupt21h and added delays to every cpu tick. made the comp as slow as u want it... im sure it wouldnt work with xp/2k though. might be workable with 98's dos mode :) |

| Coolness: 300020 | just run cmd and they work |
| Good [+1]Toggle ReplyLink» Screwhead replied on Thu Sep 4, 2003 @ 7:08pm |
| Coolness: 686285 | Nope, most of them don't work. Doom 1+2 need a front end or the graphics corupt, Rise of the Dragon, Alone in the Dark 1+2 won't even run, neither will Neuromancer. It's anoying! I wanna play old games!
I guess I'll just stick to emulators.... I found a working Sega CD Emulator! I need to find some sega cd games now... |
