| 261302 | 2004-08-13 23:50:00 | I am trying to run FrontPage 2003 on my PC which is running Windows 98SE. Frontpage needs win2000 sp3 to run. Is there any way I can emulate windows 2000 on my pc to run this? Please dont tell me to upgrade, im obviously too poor:) any help would be appreciated. |

| 261305 | 2004-08-14 01:31:00 | yeah right. | metla (154) | ||
| 261306 | 2004-08-14 04:32:00 | Easy (but not overly cheap): VMWare. It costs about US$200 :( - I'm not sure how long the trial lasts for. Mike. |

| 261307 | 2004-08-14 04:34:00 | You could also try www.download.com Virtual PC 2004[/url], although I've never used it so don't know how good it is. Mike. |

| 261308 | 2004-08-14 04:36:00 | Of course for both of my suggestions you would require an actual copy of Windows 2000 or XP to install on them anyway :) Mike. |

| 261309 | 2004-08-14 04:37:00 | LOL and oops, MS VPC won't run on W98 ;) Mike. |

| 261310 | 2004-08-14 04:41:00 | setver might make W98 report itself as W2k. Of course that probably won't make the software work. :D "setver" to Google will tell you how to. |

I doubt it :D Mike. |
