I wanted to have a emulated "WIN 98 SE" on my PC, so i tried many different emulators. They seems to work well after i installed the win 98, but they work only with desktop windows based programs... When i tried to run some 3D games, i realize that they will not help me, cos the video is software emulated and its too lame to run 3D games. So anyone can help me and tell me a win 98 emulator that will be ebale to run 3D games thru my real video card and system (compibilty mode sux and i didn't install a real win 98 cos drivers for ATI HD 3870 crossfire and other new parts don't exist for example and so...). So... Please someone tell me a emulator that will run 3D games for win98 on my Win XP pro SP3 at home. Note: My MoBo supports hardwarly the emulated systems and take one of the CPU cores for the emulated system.

Couldn't you just partition your hard drive and install Windows 98 on there?

I don't really know what you're expecting, venko.  If you're wanting to run Windows 98 while taking advantage of your mighty processing power, I'm afraid you're sh** out of luck.  If you just want an emulator that allows for some hardware 3D acceleration, try doing some research on your own.

I'm jumping back to the Mac topic. I like Macs, but I was raised on Windows 95, ME(completely junk OS) and now I have XP.
 
In school, in the Graphic Arts class I took, was my first experience with a Mac (they had them because Macs are notoriously better for graphic design). They were almost brand new iMacs with OSX (not sure which version though). Once I learned the basics of Macs, I loved it. I still wouldn't trade my PC for one just yet, though.

LOL naryar has a virus. you're screwed dude, notskrnl corruption means whatever is messing up your computer most likely is a rootkit with administator access. Just reformat and hope for the best, stop going to porn sites/using limewire and download a safe browser like firefox with noscript plugin, damn.

I am currently installing Windows on an unused partition of my hard drive and will try to fix the ntoskrnl file and save my RA2 and other important things on my 6-year-old first edition iPod.

Or you say it's better to save files, format everything and restart from zero ?

Doesn't Nar have a Mac?
 
If he does, there is only one known virus that effects Macs.

Thats always been my favorite thing about mac's is that you can have Windows and OS installed and switch back and forth. That and the superior graphic design programs The downfall is that windows does not work the best on mac's. By that i mean glitchy, slow, etc..

That's always been your favorite thing about Macs? Were you born in '06? Bootcamp didn't come along until Intel processors (which were first introduced to Macs in '06). Previously, you had to emulate in order to run Windows, which presented the slow and glitchy problems you listed. If you run Windows in Bootcamp, your Mac acts just like an ordinary PC. Any glitchyness is the fault of the user.

As for superior graphic design programs, that hasn't been true for a few years now. Sure, Final Cut Pro is nice, but the programs on Windows have caught up (and Photoshop is now offering more on the Windows front than the Mac). These days it really is all about personal preference.
