I was playing a few old DOS games on my XP PC today. - How will they play
with Vista? - come to think of it will they in fact play on a Vista PC?

Though not all dos games will work...chances are if they work with XP,
they
will also work with Vista.
NOTE: Some old games use a timing loop and will not work simply because
the
CPU is too fast...
any qbasic game can be easily hacked to work with a faster cpu though.

MAME is Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. Basically it's a program that
you can run game machine rom files within.
Support for DOS in Vista is virtually the same as it was in XP, they run
under the NTVDM subsystem.
Thanks for that.
