I been beating on Blood in DOSBox/VDMSound for a few days now, and started Virtual PC + Blood yesterday... It is definately the better of the 3 options... I got it ionstalled from the original CD, and patched it just fine... It runs with the DOS SB16 Basic drivers from SB-Creative... It has one majoe flaw still... Anytime the (anti)hero goes to speak, the ambiant noise bleeds thru... trashing his bits of dialogue. It also can run a liitle fast and then a little jerky, but all in all it's fine.

Awesome, that's good to know. I was going to try BC out under DOSBox (it's abandonware I believe but I also have it on the original CD). Maybe I'll use Virtual PC for all my vintage PC game sessions from now on. Monolith's Blood runs a tad slow in DOSBox, maybe it'll fare better in Virtual PC.

I think there are for Virtual Server... I recall him saying they would work under Virtual PC as well? I'm not sure.

Hi Ben,

Are there any VPC 2004 virtual machine additions available which are optimized for Longhorn/Vista Beta 2(Build 5384) ?
