My experience with "Virtual PC"
Gorgoncete | 3:32 AM on 12.21.2007 2 comments


Yeah! It works! That's a good sumarize of my experience, but since I don't like to suck I'm gonna explain in which way it works to me.

First, the OS installation is pretty easy. In my case I installed my old Windows 98 and the only thing I did was: use a bootable win98 disk, do two simple steps and install Windows. Pretty easy.



Second, once you have done the OS installation you just have... another PC running in a window. And for me, that I love to play old games is perfect. I tried a few of my old games that do not run on Win XP and they look perfect on the Virtual PC.

Third, I'm on Spain for Christmas, YAY!!! So probably I will not write everyday like I was doing before. Yeah well... what a problem eh?

OK, yes, is a short post but I have a beautiful girl friend on her way to my home, soooo... See you.

 about me

Hi little ones. My name is Andrés, I'm 21 and I've been playing computer games since I was 4. So probably I could kick your ass in a Wacky Wheels deathmatch.

The reason I decided to start this blog was that I have so much free time to waste, and I though that a excelent way of wasting time would be starting a blog of one the things a like the most... so here I am.

-Preferred games: RPGs (specially SRPG) and Adventures (classic style)
-Crap I don't like: MMORPG (they are like drugs and I don't like drugs) and most of the driving games
-Now playing: Phoenix Wright 3, Front Mission DS, Contra 4 (yes, I only have my DS here in Holland)
-Desiring so bad: SMT: Persona 3, The Nomad Soul, somethin else...
