    Virtual PC 2007

    Apparently it's out of beta finally... http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...c/default.mspx



    For anyone who's interested in running OS's without the hassle of actually installing them to real hardware (development, debugging, playing) it's free.

    Is it possible to emulate a Voodoo card with this? And I don't mean to just put a wrapper DLL into the Windows directory but to put that card also into the Hardware Manager. Because for example the Pandemonium 1 Setup doesn't let me install the Voodoo version of the game when just using a wrapper. I think it looks for the right graphic card properties or something like that.

    No, it's not possible to choose what graphics card to emulate. The graphics card that is emulated by the Virtual Machine doesn't support Aero either, btw.

    Need to download GoodN64 or instructions to use it? Need to check if it's a good or bad rom?

    Pandemonium needs glide.dll so most common wrappers will not work for it - maybe try dgvoodoo? http://www.freeweb.hu/dege/index.html

    But does WMWare have the ability to share folders? To transfer files to the VM without making ISOs of it?

    Yep. You can even do this in the free vmware player - download the vmware workstation tar/gz for the linux edition (to easily extract the vmware tools iso/isos) and you can then install the expansion into vmware player - not sure about shared folders but certainly drag/drop files between VM and host along with several other niceties.

    Tried it out with Vista, and created a XP system, it works fine, but it messed up my system Nforce nwtworks drivers, so I uninstalled it
