Hello, Can I run Win98SE in Wine? I've an old game I'd like to run once more that *only* works with DirectX 6.0b and no other. Stupid, right? Wine is my last hope in playing that game...

It's a complete multiplatform PC emulator, where You can install any OS. It's a bit slower (but so is wine) but for older games on newer hardware it's just like it should be :] And I think it's still available on a GNU or slightly more limited, but still free-of-charge licence :] try www.vmware.com and of course google ;] -- Best wishes Szift
