sorry, I used the Search function but that post begins with "bio menace", while I stated the games is called "biomenace". This is why it didn't show

You tried BioMenace run directly from Windows? It worked for me, when I had that game.
The same regards to the Commander Keen series. I could ran them directly from XP.

It's said that some people prefer to play those games with sound.

Huh? The game works under XP, but not with sound.
Dunno what's so insulting about it. Maybe you should
ask MS why they didn't include vdmsound-like capabilities
in the first place.

Well those who prefer sound can use dosbox.
Maybe it should be added that the "some people" in the sentence
includes a tiny bit of irony, but explaining that screws the whole idea of it.
