Is there a program that will allow me to play the game of win95/98 under XP SP2?

I'm playing star trek armada on my pc but his works do not, it installed ok, will load and run the main menu ok, but as soon as I try and play a level screenbreaks up diferent in blocks of color, I tried to run it in compatibility mode for 95 and 98, but it won't work any help will be much appreciated.

If you have or are able to legally acquire a Windows 98 license and product that you did not use to upgrade to Windows XP, then you have a few more options:

  1. You can dual boot XP and Win 98 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306559
  2. You can try to run Win 98 virtualized on your Win XP Host http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
#1 option will be the best if you can come up with another hard drive or find a way to backup/repartition your existing hard drive.   The only problem you might encounter is that some features of yourNEW computer may not work in stand-alone 98.
Option n ° 2 will be the lowest risk but you will need a Core 2 Duo or betterprocessor so that it works well enough for this scenario.  Virtual Box is free, and you must repartition your hard drive to try out it.  Virtual machine works pretty well for most things; Unfortunately, it will be probably slow for games.  It is possible, however, that your NEW computer is fast enough and that Star Trek Armada is old enough that youcan actually be able to have a pleasant experience.  Some people have really succeeded with older games doing that.
Or the other option that you choose, you will need to acquire a completely valid original Windows 98 and you want to buy a Windows XP upgrade.  If I have several of Microsoft's EULA, buying anupgraded Version of a new OS invalidate your right to the old operating system.

  • I have many windows security updates and are now too much room. Is there a program that will reduce the amount of space being taken up?

    I want to free memory space and have years of security updates to windows of the pak series 3 services. Is there a way to free up space or I will damage the operating system?

    There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to an external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on an external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions.

    • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
    • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
    • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
    • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
    • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
    • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
    • See also:

    " How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

    " Forty ways to free disk space ."

    But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

    In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you must move it to your external drive.  If you want to move an application on an external drive, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location (and even then, it is likely going to install some files on your main system drive).  You can not simply move the files.

    I do not recommend the removal of the updates installed through Windows Update at all. You can compromise the security, the speed and the health of your PC.

  • Is there a free program that will help the crop photos?

    Original title: cropping of images

    Hello

    I was wondering if there is a free program that will allow me to crop the images as in the Mac preview. I use Windows 8 and the 2 things that come with it is not working properly. Photos Gallery cultures option does not always and both are annoying.  I tried Irfanview, but after cropping a photo, I have to register a newer version of the same file instead of save changes I made.

    I often have with Photo Gallery.  But if you don't like that, there are other options such as Paint.net or GIMP.  Or if you use Picasa from Google to organize your pictures, with a crop too.

    Why can't I minimizes exceeding 2 Notepad in FF? I used to be able to minimize the notebooks as much as I wanted to. When I search on a topic I keep several notebook open until I finished. FF must have made an update and now I can't do that. Is there a setting I can change that will allow me to do it again?

    Bouquet,

    Great to hear that your problem is finally solved.

    Regarding 2nd query you have raised, it is not possible to have the program running if you turn OFF the computer (it's like saying you want the bulb to keep bright despite off). When stop you the machine, you turn off the power... so there is no way that the current state maintained. When start the computer again the next time it starts on new.

    But there are 2 options that can help you with your problem: -.

    1 SAVE your changes before you close the program, and choose next time when you start the computer

       File ->Open (This way your work is preserved and you need not start afresh next time onwards)
    

    2. instead of turning off the computer, choose to Hibernate. When Hibernate you (and NOT CLOSE) the current state is preserved. This means that if you leave the notebook running he will remain in the same State when you next start your computer the next time.

    PS: as this forum is for the FF to discuss related issues, I propose that for further assistance e-mail me at my personal mail ID [email protected]' rather than discuss it here on this forum

    Now your problem is solved with kindness mark this as closed discussion (marking/choice of appropriate solution helped you)
