All,
I just wanted to reply and confirm that I have also been able to successfully install and run Chaos Gate within Virtual PC. I've only tried the first couple of scenarios so far, but it's been running flawlessly.
Virtual PC is available as a free download at Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspx
As mentioned in previous posts, this link was very helpful in installing a virtual Win98 setup: http://www.roudybob.net/?p=154
Aside from the installation of Virtual PC and the setup of a virtual Win98 session, I haven't had to modify a single thing to get Chaos Gate to run. It installed and ran 'right out of the box' so to speak.
It appears to me that Virtual PC is a pretty elegant and straightforward solution for anyone wanting to run older programs that are not compatible with newer operating systems.
And no, I'm not a salesman for Microsoft!
I'm just happy to be able to play Chaos Gate!!!
Now, excuse me while I go outfit a few Marines and open a can of whoop a$$!!!!
