Hey all.
Obviously new to the forum but i have an old love of old games!!
Sadly though, little to no tech skills.......
I have recently bought an old pentium 75 and a heap of oldish games and some hardware. What I need is some advice on how possible it will be to build/upgrade this pc in order to run all the games I have. And I mean run out of the box as god intended, no emulators...etc
The games are :
Wing com 2,3,4
Syndicate plus
Syndicate wars
Ultima 8
Stellar 7
Flashback
Fade to black
Zeliard
Crime wave
Decent 2
Jungle strike
Desert strike
Mech warrior 2
Die hard trilogy
Die hard trilogy 2
Postal
Swiv 3D
Fallout 1
Fallout 2
Commandos
Worms
The highest system requirement of all those games goes to die hard trilogy 2 which needs a pentium 200. If I was to replace the p75 CPU with a p200 will the much older dos games still run?
Is there a machine setup broad enough to cover say from zeliard to die hard?
The hardware I have is a SB 16 ISA card a voodoo2 12mb card and other assorted pci graphics cards.. Will I use windows 95 as that will support the latr games but still has the exit to dos feature? That's what I'm hoping anyway....
I do appologise if this sort of thing has been asked to death but I'm just hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction!
Thanks in advance
Manno
