January 30, 201312 yr But recent tests have shown that in a graphics heavy environment such as gaming, video editing etc, that windows 8 actually preforms worse than windows 7. very true i noticed that with windows 8 framerate is slower when gaming but i must say windows 8 is not for me i'll be staying with windows 7 ultimate for now
January 31, 201312 yr Gameing? Not something us old farts do very often, Windows 8 runs Pong & Space Invaders fine....
January 31, 201312 yr I dualboot my laptop with XP, Linux Ubuntu and windows 7, only problems im having with windows 7 is running a lot of the old 32-bit games (Apache 95, streets of simcity, proper old skool stuff) and it wont run the johnny castaway screensaver
January 31, 201312 yr Google is your friend, Foams... To run all 16bit Windows installers and programs on Windows 7 64bit you will need to install a 32bit version of Windows as a guest OS in something like MS Virtual PC, Vmware, VirtualBox, Parallels, etc. You might also have success with DOSBox or OpenGlide. D-Fend Reloaded is possibly the easiest to use and includes DOSBox already installed.
