Matt H Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I've got a few old school games on the PC, some not even the size of a CD, can you burn them all onto a DVD, and have them all running from that DVD alone? or is that not possible?

Pete Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 You could create ISO images of the CDs and then use Daemon Tools to mount the images. I know guys that do this and keep the ISOs on their HDD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 bigger question is would xp/vista actually run it and if it does would it work with new hardware. I got a load of old school games that either dont work or dont see my 8800 as a 3d accelorator!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pot Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 bigger question is would xp/vista actually run it and if it does would it work with new hardware. I got a load of old school games that either dont work or dont see my 8800 as a 3d accelorator!!!! Yeah that, I was a bit annoyed that the copy of Syndicate I found wouldn't run on my PC... Another thing is, if they run, do they run at the normal speed? I found an old copy of Sim City which ran on here, but due to this PC being 'slightly' better than those when it was made, it was unplayable! Went way too fast...

I got a load of old school games that either dont work or dont see my 8800 as a 3d accelorator!!!! if you install it then right click on the main .exe file, under properties change it to run under compatibility mode. may work on some of the newer older games.
