I'm trying to run some games that are relying on some virtual device drivers which xp doesn't support. thanks for any help

It's not very good for 3D gaming, but for everything else Virtual PC (last verison is 5 I think) is pretty solid and easy to use. Check it out.

However before installing that (which requires to make a virtual C drive and install windows 9x on it), did you try the compatibility mode on WinXP? You can use an Sound Blaster emulator (such as VDMsound) to get the sound working.

Thanks for the info, the compatability mode wont work as it will do eveything but .VxD support. which makes it more of an uncompatability support than anything else. none of the NT line of OS' support vxd's. .-_-. Damn Micro$ponge
