You can just use Hamachi. That way you don't have to manage a VPN server. Or maybe you don't like other people managing your virtual networks? Hehehhhehehe. <strong>Arris:</strong> I think VPN is more clean because it doesn't install some networking driver and it's just build-in in Windows. However, Hamachi is a very handy tool! :) Why use VPN? You can just use Hamachi. That way you don’t have to manage a VPN server. Or maybe you don’t like other people managing your virtual networks?

SERIOUSLY. I HAVE been TRYING to figure this out for AGES!!! I used Process Monitor [free Microsoft tool] to try and diagnose why GTA2 was aborting with a DX6.1 bug, to find that fair enough the DMUSIC.DLL file it needed was missing - but finding the DX6.1 version of the DLL and copying it into my game folder simply didnt help... IT NEEDED THE INF INSTALLATION TO REGISTER THE DAMN FILE THOUGH! NOW I CAN PLAY THIS CLASSIC GAME AGAIN WITHOUT GOING INTO MY CRAP XP DUAL-BOOT THANK YOU SO MUCH WHOEVER DISCOVERED THIS DO U HAVE A PAYPAL ACCOUNT ILL SEND U $5 :D <strong>Arris:</strong> I'm glad you can play GTA2 now! It's indeed a very simple solution for a problem that looks very complicated. ;) OH MY GOD
