Okay listen: I am less than tech-savvy, but I tried so many step-intensive things on my dinky PC, to no avail.
I use Windows10 home (yes, I know, bear with me!) and am just trying to boot games I already OWN!!! No dice. Now I just sit here, arms crossed, and seethe “I hate u, computer.”
Yes, I’ve enabled the IIS and tried to use the option to allow program to run 32-bit. No dice.
I’ve tried compatibility mode. Absolutely nothing (Windows, you useless-ass shitwad).
I struggled through DOSBOX as a non-tech person, managed to do the Windows 3.1 thing, tried to boot my files through there, got as far as the install screen!!! Stuck at 0% probably forever. So it was a failure.
Tried running old game files from some people who are smarter than me that emulate the D:\ drive instead of the physical disks. Zilch.
FrikkiN AHHHHH!!!
I JUST WANNA RELIVE MY NOSTALGIA AND SHOW MY KID ALL MY OLD AND SHITTY GAMES I USED TO PLAY AS A KID!!!
Could anyone give a solution that won’t have me downloading and installing 6 trillion new programs? Any helpful links a non-tech person could understand?
Swear to god, I’ll Cashapp 5$ to the first person to give a solution I can reasonably follow & that works.
Also you will have my adoration forever. Thanks.
From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it’s gaming you can probably discuss it here!

Yeah, not gonna lie, screwing around with WINE can be an aneurysm unto itself.
Maybe there’s a decent QEMU setup available? One that can emulate a decent GPU for the time?
