How would I run either System Shock 1 (If I can find it) or System Shock 2 on Vista anyways?

for systemshock 1 take an emulator like dosemu or dosbox, I think dosbox should run it fine! :thumb: system shock 2 on vista is not possible as far as I know. but you could run a live linux and try wine. I heard of one version... :p but Displacer is part of a project, that makes it possible under linux. may be this is the same for vista!

Well, once you OWN a legit copy of either game...
I tried Dosbox on my Vista 64x once, and the games still didn't run. BUT, I did have quite an interesting success with Microsoft Virtual PC 2007, and installed DOS 7.10, if you want to give that a shot. Though for SS2 you will need to install Windows on it. Windows on a Windows box? Just upgrade to XP if you can.
Oh yeah:
CD Drive: 40 bucks. That'l get you one heck of a DVD/CD burner combo!
Best games to ever enter existance phase: probably about 15 bucks for Shock1 and 20 bucks for Shock2. Probably.
