Confession time. From the moment I upgraded to Windows Vista many years ago (and abruptly to Windows 7, then 8, now 10) I have always maintained a separate partition or dedicated hard drive with Windows XP 32-bit installed as a multi-boot system. Why? For an absurdly limited number of reasons, if I'm honest. It is a lot more convenient and often perfectly adequate to simply create a virtual machine (i.e., using Virtual Box or Hyper-V) for Windows XP as a guest OS. One of the key reasons for using XP these days is for niche software that may not run appropriately or at all on more recent operating systems, even when in compatibility mode.
Exhibit A: There is an old indie game known as Jetmen Revival, developed by Crew42 in the early 2000s (I believe using a Delphi 5 library). I enjoyed this game endlessly over the years, and even had a stab at redeveloping it myself for modern hardware but never found the opportunity to complete it. On non-XP machines, depending on the video card and driver software, the game will either crash upon launch, glitch out upon play, or chug along sluggishly creating an equally unplayable experience. No matter what compatibility settings and hardware adjustments are made, this game simply will not run as it was intended on modern machines nor in virtual machines.

I see you are rocking intel 4790k, am I right (because you wrote 4970k which doesn't exist) and you said the latest virtualisation technologies don't compete. Well... You are wrong! I am currently running a setup where I can choose which os ( win 10 or os x ) to run at a time, or I can run them simultaneously. Everything is running on top of linux. With the recent virtualisation advancements you can pass through real PCI devices to a virtual machine. Gaming performance is around 93% non VM performance. And the best thing? Your hardware already supports it! You can try out unraid which is paid, but with 30 days trial, but easy to use, or set up arch linux and with some tinkering (the saddest part was that it took me over one week during free time to set everything up to work flawlessly. You don't need much. You can set up linux to run from a usb flash drive and it you would load up your real hard drives.
@MLG Major, thanks for that added virtualization information (and for spotting my typo). This sounds like something worth exploring down the road. I did not have much success, performance-wise, with hardware accelerated virtualization via VMWare, VirtualBox or Hyper-V when trying to run XP-based games. However, I had much better success running Ubuntu and other Linux flavors as guest OSes and was able to play 3D accelerated games without any issue. I would be curious if the game example I mentioned would run on your setup without error and with good performance, as it is one of the better examples I have of quirks that prevent some apps from running well post-XP or on virtual machines. The installer for that game is at _2.exe.
#3. If you wish, you can add a virtual hard disk to the new machine. You can either create a new hard drive file or select one from the last or another location using the folder icon. Here, you should choose the last option Use an existing virtual hard disk file. Select the file and click Create.
I am having a problem. It says: A critical error occured while running the virtual machine and the machine execution has stopped. If you would like to know I am running and Intel i5-7200U 2.5GHz with Turbo Boost up to 3.1 GHzand NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2 gb decidated vram
THANKS MUKHTAR BHAI,Initially I stuck but I tried many times. The best thing I did is I updated my virtual box & extension pack, then removed old machines and repeated carefully all steps guided by you, religiously.
Game defaults to 800600 or 640480 resolution:- Possibly related to the above, on some machines the game will not run in any other resolution. Try restarting your PC and then running the game as administrator. You can also try clearing the virtual store section in the registry (a tutorial on how to do this is coming soon).
