![]() ![]() You will want to look up "VMWare" or "VirtualBox" or "QEmu" and learn how to use those if you're looking to go this way. A lot of IT folks do this for training purposes on learning another operating system.īut to go back to emulators: This isn't covered by RetroArc, so you're looking at the wrong program for this. Even Win9x doesn't have an emulator, as generally there is no need for it: You should be able to run things through the Win32 libraries/backwards compatability that is notorious for Windows.ĭoes it take up a lot of system resources? Depending on the hardware you're virtualizing: Could be, but generally if you have a CPU that is able to run virtualization (which most modern processors are able to do) you should be able to run the host system (one OS) while virtualizing another (the other OS) with no issues. ![]() There is no emulator for "Windows XP" era titles. In the grand scheme of things, you're asking for something that RetroArch does not cover. And you can run games "satisfactorily" from the modern era there. Virtualization is used for VFIO/GPU-Passthrough on Linux, for example. Depending on your hardware and the software you're virtualizing it can be a small/big hit. Virtualization is a performance hit in gaming, yes. Is it? Does running a virtual desktop impact performance of the game? Does it take a lot of system resources? I haven't tried that, yet, but it's seemingly a lot of trouble for not much gained.
