Yes, but no all!

It could be an addition to this site.

I also have a PC with Win2000 Server SP4 which i play such games, which i can check games. :whistle:

Do you want me to start working on a list? :Titan:

Incompatibility with Win98SE: Ancient Evil. And we hate it for that. Damn that I have to miss out on such a great game (which I provided myself, to top it off >_> Only know it from playing it at a friend's as a kid) The rest works like a charm, most of the time.

Considering the fact that about 90% (IMHO) of all old games works well on Win98SE, you should try to make a list of those games which actually doesn't work instead of listing all those which do work... The task would be huge if you are of the perfectionist style. k:
