How Do I Install Games On A Virtual Pc

How do I add games to virtual machine/PC?

Are you using the Microsoft Virtual PC 2007? If yes, then you should first install the virtual machine additions... On your virtual PC, go to Action> Install or update Virtual Machine Additions. Wait until it successfully installed the add-ons. Installing these will enable you to drag and drop files from the host PC to your virtual PC..

And to use the physical DVD drive in your Virtual PC, go to CD> Use physical drive.

Hope that helps..

Installing Windows 95 game on Windows 7?

im sorry for giving you bad news. windows vista, windows 7 and most xp machines

windows 3.0 3.1 95 98 me uses a file system called fat16/32 in xp you had a choice of file system format fat32 or the NSFS which migrated from windows nt. most of the older games will not run, or run correctly under NTFS. which is the reason for the error. at this time there is 2 ways. obtain an older computer system that has windows 95/98 or me. If you get an xp service pack1 or 2 cd, you will have the choice of file system formats when installing xp. or creating a dual boot and have eather windows 95/98/me boot on the same or different hard drive, which you will be setting as side a part specific amount of hard drive space for the second operating system, the fat32 partition. and the NSFS windows 7 partition.

beleave it or not, you usually can find these systems by the side of the road even today. microsoft has no continuing support but these systems still exist.

older games still exist, and are fun, the only way to play them is with an older system. You could use a dual boot system

Can a virus that is installed on to a virtual machine transfer on to your normal OS?

In theory, no. The guest OS inside the virtual machine is supposed to be isolated from the host OS, with software running on the guest unable to access the host's resources or the machine's hardware directly.Theory and practice are the same in theory, but often different in practice.There have been vulnerabilities in VM hypervisors that allow malware to breach the separation and infect the host. It's really difficult to do, but it can be and has been done.For example, a recent flaw in the Xen hypervisor allows malware on a guest OS to gain write access to memory pages that should be read-only, potentially allowing software on the guest to hijack the host:http://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/advis... Last year, a flaw in VMware memory management was identified that allows malware on the guest to execute arbitrary code on the host by piping data down the VM's virtualized serial port:http://theregister.co.uk/2015/06...These kinds of flaws are typically quite difficult to exploit; normal garden-variety malware is not likely to use them (or even to notice that it's running in a VM, though some malware will check and disable itself if it believes it's running in a virtualized environment in order to make analysis more difficult). And you gain considerable additional defense by running a different operating system as the host than you're running in your guest VMs. So normally, unless you run a large virtualized data enter that's being specifically targeted by an attack, you're at very low risk from malware in a VM escaping into your host OS. But yes, it can happen.

How to install Microsoft Java Virtual Machine? I need it to install Matlab but can't seem to get it to instal?

I haven't installed MATLAB in years but now I'm trying to and every time I run the installer it says it needs a new version of Java Virtual Machine (it used Microsoft's version). It reboots my computer and gives me the same message over and over.

Help!
