    Yes, I know it's not supported.

    So far I've tied this experiment, which didn't seem to work (nor was it expected to work.)
    hilltopit.com/article_ipx_spx_vista_x64.html

    Basically, is there anyone who has figured this out?
    I know it "TECHNICALLY IS POSSIBLE" and that someone can make it possible. Even if it ruins my Windows installation.

    So if anyone's got any information that could help towards getting this possible then post below and thank you in advance.
    I really don't want to dual boot Windows 8 and Windows XP.

    Purpose is old games.

    I was just about to install Windows XP, thank you for your suggestion I will try it. :)
    I'll tell you my result later if I remember to do so :)

    Seems like both ends need this special wrapper?
