This would rely on your PC supporting the alternative OS.ĭual booting XP/Vista isn't a big deal but Win98SE/Vista is hard work. If you are feeling adventurous you could install a separate Win98SE (or even XP) OS and install FS98 to it. Simplest solution is going to be FS2004 which is the oldest version of FS that Vista will allow to run.

There isn't a "registry hack" which will fool the game installer into thinking DirectX 10 is DirectX 5.Īlso VirtualPC is a non starter as it won't support use of a joystick - rather a serious limitation in a flight sim! Looking at this objectively there really is no easy way of solving FS98 into Vista.
