What browser do you use Alan? I'm using the latest Internet Explorer.
I for one refuse to use IE, every computer virus I or my wife have ever had came via IE and I know how to make my system secure. I played with many different ones but always keep coming back to Firefox.

C&C Generals still runs fine
I use Metro mainly as Gamesexplorer starting it via vbs file
I don´t play LAN/Mulitplayer anymore since it simply does not work. When I try to play it online it works max one time. After that I get the message that I can not connect to other players at the begin of a match. But I don´t miss it. Full of "scudbuggers" etc. I just play it for fun in skirmish mostly.
How can C&C General work fine?
Red Alert 2 does not work without setting up a second "monitor" through the graphics software, faking a 2nd VGA monitor since RA2 cannot handle a modern video card whatsoever.
Also, doesn't C&C G use IPX/SPX? (There is a game hack that adds Winsock to this game as well)

don't even do windows 8,, go apple.
Well I've been struggling with Windows 8 for four months now, and while I still hate it, I am no longer at total war with it. But for routine PC use, it really does suck. Not that I expect them to care.

Well I am now in Day 2 of dealing with Windows 8 and the frustration level has not subsided in the least. Some of the simplest things, like safely removing hardware (my external hard drive) simply cannot be dome imtuitively as it could be on all other Windows systems. I am finally getting the desk top set up sufficiently that I can function but sheesh. What maniac decided this was a good idea?

Get a free software package called Classic Shell. It allows you run Win 8 like you did Win 7 or XP. It gives you a working start button and almost all the functionality with it that you had in Win 7. I install it as part of the standard configuration when I roll out a Win 8 box to my users.

Does it restore capability to run the games I was running on XP? Windows 8 isn't very friendly to most of them. I have finally adjusted to lack of a start button and am not having all that many issues with Windows 8 now....there are even a few--VERY few--features I have come to appreciate. But I really would like to have some of those games back. For instance running Pogo games on Windows 8 has not been that satisfactory. They work but a lot of the functionality like whole scree
n play etc. just doesn't work.

No, unfortunately. But it does allow you to get rid of that hideous Metro interface.

I hardly think about it anymore and rarely ever visit it--I like the fact that the major market performance is an automatic feature and do glance at that now and then--but one quick click and I'm on my familiar desktop. But oh well. Maybe the game manufacturers will come up with some updated stuff that will run on Windows 8.
