Found a port of a game I like and wanted to check it out but it's Windows 98 and I know Windows 10 has shitty compatibility options that never work. Really don't want to go about setting up a virtual machine if I can get away with it.

I have not checked this link, it was just first in search

The windows vm host is called “hyper-v” if you want to look up running games under it.

Cool I might be able to boot up windows xp with this, thanks.

I’m running qemu for local vms, so I can’t be too much help, but holler if you have problems. That was my local vm solution for years and it works pretty good.

Thanks I actually got it to run native on 10, cheers!
