Found a port of a game I like and wanted to check it out but it's Windows 98 and I know Windows 10 has shitty compatibility options that never work. Really don't want to go about setting up a virtual machine if I can get away with it.

why? it's easy to set up a vm. your cpu and motherboard definitely already support it.
windows 10 has it built in already i'm pretty sure, you just gotta enable it in the uhh... add/remove windows features dialog.
e: i have a couple of little computers for running old stuff on bare metal. that's always an option. any of the now insanely cheap 32 bit netbooks will be more than enough.
Have a link on how to do this?
I have not checked this link, it was just first in search
The windows vm host is called “hyper-v” if you want to look up running games under it.
Cool I might be able to boot up windows xp with this, thanks.
I’m running qemu for local vms, so I can’t be too much help, but holler if you have problems. That was my local vm solution for years and it works pretty good.
Thanks I actually got it to run native on 10, cheers!
