I do not know if this is a necro post.

However I wanted to confirm that the following games can be played on Win 98 by simply copying the GoG files over.

Hitman Codename 47
Age of Wonder
Rune

Intel i7-3770/Asus P8H77-M/Gt 980ti - XP
Intel P4(Prescott)/Gigabyte GA-8I915PL-G/FX5200/CT4740 - Win98

I started another topic, about installing games with KernelEX, to investigate how to make certain games work best on Win98. Here it is:

Oh.. good to know. I will update there if I find any games which I can copy and paste. I have a Dell C810 laptop where I experiment with Win 98 setups.

What I've found out is that whether a GOG game will perform on a system or not is... quite finnicky. And depends a lot on the system on which it was run. So I'd be grateful if you posted the hardware/software configuration with which you ran it too.
