Is it possible to get the original 1989 (using a CD 1993) SimCity on Vista?

Hi all

I used to play SimCity on MS-DOS, when I was little and I recently saw at the used Bookstore for sale, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to see if I could get it to work on Vista.

However, I have to be able to run on a 12-bit version of Windows cannot run a 64-bit version.

Is it possible that I could get it to work? I'd really LIKE to be able to play again...

Thank you for any input!

Hello Xargentina! Please use this forum :)
Yes, you can play this game on vista. You need only one program: DosBox

http://www.dosbox.com/

Download the latest version :) (the last is 0.73) I think that to play in 1993, you used ms - dos, haven't you? DosBox is an emulator of ms - dos to play games like ms - dos on ms - dos of origin machine. You need help to use DosBox?

I hope to be State aid :)

  • How to get the original item_property after have changed at runtime

    Hello

    for example:

    in my form there is an ITEM_A defined with VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE = "ABCD_RED".

    while executing, this property turns into "XYZ_GREEN".

    Set_Item_Property ('BLOCK_A.ITEM_A', VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE, 'XYZ_GREEN');

    Now I can read this property of Get_Item_Property - (real function, it is "XYZ_GREEN")
    But what about the origin of property "ABCD_RED".

    Is it possible to get the origin of property on a direct question to my form
    without saving it initially in time?

    Thank you
    Norbert

    You can save it in a variable before editing or you can reset the property to the original value that was set at design time.

    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('my_item', VISUAL_ATTRIBUTE, '');
    

    Just use two single quotes without space between them "and the property will be reset to what it was at design time.

    Is it possible to get the details of the file (for example the subject and comments) off the screen and to an Excel file or a text file without having to retype this information

    * original title - file details *.

    Hello

    Could you explain what is exactly? What do you mean by off the screen?

    According to my way of thinking, you want to export the file details of all your files on your HARD drive to an excel file or a txt file. If I'm right in this case, it is not possible to export the details of each & every file in the excel sheet.

  • Is it possible to get the activation code of the older PC so that I can use it in my class?

    Original title: Activation of Windows 8.

    If there is some time I had windows 8 pro to use in my construction of future games. Not knowing I could install it on 1 computer (thought it would be at least 2) I installed it as a test on my desktop PC previos where it has not yet run properly cause it was an older model (and if you haven't used since then, cause I have a laptop with Windows7). But now my PC gaming is finished and I suddenly find I could activate only on 1 PC.

    So my question is. Is it possible to get the activation code of the older PCs (that I use even more, maybe even remove it) so that I can use it in my class? Or that the activation code and the money just went in the toilet?
    I could install Windows 7 to 2 different PC-s(didn't try more cause there was no need) with no problems and it wasen can't pack family, why is Windows 8 different? Sometimes errors occur.
    Ask cause I went all on buy the parts, I have no money to buy a new copy of windows 8.
    Awayting for your answers.
    Thank you
    Edit! Maybe I'm a solution. Going to try it out after I return to work.

    "I have Windows 8/8 Pro is installed on my PC." If I replace with another PC, can I install my copy of Windows 8 on my new PC until I remove it from the other? »

    Yes. The highest point is the one you mentioned: you must remove Windows 8 from your old computer before you activate on the new. In other words, you can have your copy of Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro running on a single computer at a time.

    Another thing to keep in mind is that if you have installed an upgrade copy under license of Windows 8 on a computer and then you want to use it on another computer, the same 'upgrade' rules apply: you must have a previous version of Windows on the computer before you install Windows 8. You can ignore this rule, if you started with Windows 8.1

    Important: You can't "move" Windows 8 or Windows 8 Pro on another computer if your computer is pre-installed with Windows 8. Your copy of Windows 8 is what OEM licensed which means that you are allowed to use Windows 8 on the computer on which he came already installed on.

    "How many times can I reinstall Windows 8 on another computer? Assuming I follow the rule 'uninstall old installation', peux I keep installing Windows 8 on different computers? »

    There is no limit to the number of computers that you reinstall Windows 8 on as long as you follow the rules, that I discussed in the last question.
     

    Hi NeemeK,

    We appreciate the research you have done to find more information on this issue. The information you found were correct.

    OEM product key can only be used with the computer on which it is installed on.

    When the operating system is not active (uninstalled) in the old computer, you can install it on the new computer. This applies to any number of computers you use.

    If you get any errors, you can perform the activation of the phone.

  • Qosmio G30-163: is it possible to get the HDMI by component

    Hello

    It seems that I'll be stuck with my Qosmio back to its own screen whenever I turn off my LCD TV. So what to do?
    I have a box of multiple component entry from another manufacturer. Is it possible to get the HDMI / component?

    While I listen to my signal through that?
    The only other option is for me to leave my TV in all of time...

    Hello

    Hmm, to my knowledge the HDMI / component is not possible.
    The HDMI-DVI adapter is known to me. Also the "cable DVI-component.

    In any case, I don't think that it is a large and serious issue. You can use the FN + F5 combination to toggle the display if the image switches to the internal display of the laptop!

  • Is it still possible to get the 64-bit Windows Vista support?

    Hello!

    Well, I have a copy to authentic detail, under license of Windows Vista Edition Home Premium. He put 32 bit media. But at the time when Vista comes out, I could order the 64-bit Vista Home Premium support which I use today with the same license key that came on the parcel.
    About a year ago I bought the Windows Vista Express upgrade, which is valid for a Home Premium to Ultimate upgrade. But the disk is 32-bit only! So, I was wondering if it is still possible to get the 64-bit separately, support only this time, for the edition of Vista Ultimate? I ask this question because I would like to upgrade to Vista Ultimate, but still run on 64-bit, since I can't spend 64-bit Home Premium to Ultimate 32 - bit.
    I know that it may be too late now, given the fact that Windows 7 is already out and Windows 8 is in its phase of consumer preview now. But I am not really interested in upgrading to one of them at this stage. All I really want is just to upgrade to Vista Ultimate, but I need the 64-bit support, since I already have the license key.
    Maybe that Microsoft may allow me to download an ISO image of the Vista Ultimate 64-bit? That would be good enough for me, I don't care for the physical disc, it is not really necessary. I could get some pirate site or something like that, since I already own not one but two licenses, but I don't want that.
    Thanks in advance!

    The disks are probably non-destinee resale and this may explain the color.

    The Express Upgrade product key is specific to an upgrade from Home Premium to Ultimate.  The product key with the expedition is probably a full license key.

    > By 'Matrix Vista upgrade', you mean upgrading one bit-version to the other, like 64-bit to 32-bit or 32-64, right?

    N ° upgrade matrix tells you if an upgrade installation is allowed or a custom installation is required when moving from one edition of Windows to another.

    > Also, if I use a key Vista Home Premium that I have today to install Home Premium and then upgrade to Vista Ultimate, what happenes to my old key? The old key become invalid/replaced by the new key that I got the update? I mean where I want to go back to the old edition, I've had to go back to Vista Home Premium, I reuse this old key?

    You can use the old key to return to the old edition.  However, you can not use the key to install the old edition on a different computer.  The old key is bound to the key to upgrade.

    > "" If a user is running a 32-bit version of Windows, a user can only be upgraded to another 32-bit version: upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit requires a clean installation. ""

    Now you are confusing a "install update" with an 'upgrade license '.  A retail upgrade license is valid to move from a 32-bit edition to a 64-bit edition, but an upgrade installation is not allowed and a custom installation is required (due to the change in the number of bits of the installation).

     
    > And now Microsoft will probably speed up the versions of Windows, with new versions coming out every two years or more, or has done.
     
    Not true.  Microsoft has been on a cycle of three years for a long time.  There is no speed upward.  Vista has been delayed for two years, when Microsoft declared a moratorium until security problems in Windows have been fixed (XP SP2 was the result).
     
    > I don't know about Windows 7. I don't know if I'll get it or wait for Windows 8. I hear a lot of misfortunes for Windows 7
     
    I don't know where you got this info.  Windows 7 is much better than Vista or XP.  Vista is the one that is panned by critics as a real dog.  Try Windows 7 and you will never look back.

  • How can I get the original icon HP Quick Launch (NOT the shortcut!) on my DESKTOP?

    I have a HP 2000 t - 2d 00 Notebook PC with operating system Windows 8.1.  The computer was recently repaired, but when I bought it, it had initially provided with HP Quick Start icon (square blue tile - like appearance with the rocket / is NOT a shortcut with an arrow inside!)

    Once it has been repaired, the original official HP QuickStart icon was on the desk.

    However, something happened, I have no idea what (!), and the original official HP QuickStart icon disappeared from the desktop!

    I would be very happy if someone could tell me how to get the original icon HP Quick Start (blue tile in appearance as square with the rocket) on my desk.

    I don't want a shortcut; I know how to create a shortcut!  I am certainly difficult and would like to have some things on the desktop exactly the way they were when I came to the computer.

    Thank you very much to all those who can help me.

    You missed my questions in my first reply to your message!  The link you provided for the program that can get rid of the arrows on the desktop shortcut icons does not have audio, or am I missing something?

    And since you said I could try a system restore before that the icon has been "modified" - does this mean that the original icon, when I got the computer brand new, * has * indeed an icon for HP Quick Launch / is NOT a shortcut?

    Thank you.

    Hey @BJ22 ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand you are trying to add the quick launch of HP on the desktop of your laptop.

    The icons on the desktop for programs preinstalled by HP are actually shortcuts. The executable file can be moved from its installed location without breaking the connection to the .dll for the software files.

    If the arrow bothers you, you can use this light application to remove the arrows from shortcut icons: Windows shortcut arrow editor.

    You can also try to restore until the icon has been changed. Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8).

    I hope that it is a viable solution for you.
