i would use a real Win95,98,XP in virtualization, there could be many micro flaws using Wine with this old stuff :)

True! Might give this a go tomorrow. I'm kinda shocked it got as far as it did to be honest

How about using Proton? It should be a little more completed for some cases.

he should just use the original system - porting to newer system always happen AFTER getting it to build on the original platform

im also shocked :)

maybe a step by step upgrade from 2.x->4.x->5.x->6.x needed

there are subtile changes between the very early studio versions but when reaching VS2005/2008 everything is fine for upgrade

builds for me under fresh XP with VC++ 2.0 until some globutil.obj file could not be build by nmake

Ben Stone is also working on it - maybe join forces :)

Exactly the same issue I ended with. It might need some modifications. I'll have a dig
