I have setup Virtual PC 3.0.3 on OS 9.2 with a VooDoo2 so that I can get some old 3D PC games working, like Half Life and similar. It works better than expected, 800x600 with few frame drops.... however Virtual PC seems VERY unstable on 9.2 - it crashes with an error type 7 every 10 minutes or so. Its not a driver (extension) error as I have removed all but the very base ones and I still get the error. Can some one help me out with info - i need to know which most recent OS can run Virtual PC 3.0.3 without crashing as I am guessing that the error is 9.2 based.
On a further note, has any one here had experience in doing this? Mouse support in 3D programs seems completly broken (lags and has massive oversensitivity). The mouse problems were fixed in newer versions of VPC, but then all verions above 3 have had the VooDoo support removed. Is there a fix? (or a fix for RealPC mouse support as that has the same error but it does not crash every few minutes).
Any way, if there is no fix its not too bad, the voodoo2 card onl cost me £10 so not a huge loss, and it works well for Unreal Tourny which sucks in RAVE and has errors in OpenGL.
