So,
I've built up my Socket 7, and I've got my early XP machine. However, I now have no clue what to do with the p3-933 machine I've got sitting here.
My setup is this:
The oldest DOS games get run in DOSbox. No dicking around there, no plans to build up an extremely old machine for those. DOSbox runs them better anyway.
The SS7 machine runs all the late DOS to early Windows stuff.
The XP machine takes up the middle from late 98 to about 2005 or so.
Anything newer gets run on my modern machine.
I guess what I need to know is, are there any games from the late 98 era that can't run in XP? The year gap is roughly 97/98ish to about 2002 or so. Can I just use the XP machine to run them all and eliminate the gap or is there a place for the middle machine?
