Is Bolsonaro a sociopath responsible for the life of more than 200 million people? No. We already removed the sociopaths from the power. Their names are: Lula and Dilma. Only sociopaths can think that wasting money in stadiums for world cup and olympic games was more important than hospitals... …

I’m trying to find my other racing games such as Daytona USA, CART Precision Racing, IndyCar II and NASCAR Racing... I hope I can run them on my Win2K VM.

Yup. After I proceeded to update everything and install a great browser, turns out that Youtube is damn, damn slow. The browser is even slower under QEMU. I threw it straight to the bin, and decided to stick with the only Win2k VM I have perfectly working here - The VMWare Fusion one. A lost weekend …

I will update and then try again WinZip. I have WinZip working in another Win2k install. I just have to …

Something probably wasn't properly installed in my Win2k QEMU. I cannot update the Windows Update Agent with the WUA installer (reports unrecoverable error and complains about the lack of MSVCRT90.dll) and I cannot install last supported WinZip version too. While on VMWare I  can still access …

I installed OS/2 Warp 4 on my 1997 budget workstation build. I thought about dedicating one of my retro boxes to OS/2 as well, so yesterday I gave it a try in a VirtualBox VM, which worked out surprisingly well. Having never used that OS before, I wonder which version to install. Plain OS/2 Warp 4 …

I installed OS/2 Warp 4 on my 1997 budget workstation build. The eyes of my dad had nostalgia tears when he saw that. hahaha! Oh sweet. How old is he? What is his experience with OS/2? So curious! He probably used previous versions. He has a still unboxed OS2 Warp 4 CD box stored somewhere in his …

For QEMU0002 you can try the guest drivers, unknown if they work in Windows 2000: https://github.com/virtio-win/kvm-guest-drivers-windows/releases For PNP0103 that's HPET and isn't supported in Windows 2000. Should be disabled in the BIOS if can't be used. I somehow fixed the issue turning off the …
