Yep, that brings up a good point.

I'm running Win10 (64 bit) and so far its a great OS for running older games.

Keep in mind that most older games were published back when multi cores and threads were a pipe dream. They just weren't designed for them. I'm running an i3 CPU and the biggest bang I get comes from the 3.7 Ghz clock speed on the chip.
With Win10, things don't crash. The worst that can happen (at least so far) is a CTD or as I call it, a blink. I just click the shortcut again and everything's back where I left it.

I'm not saying Win10 is the perfect solution, its also fantastic if you enjoy being nickled and dimed for software as an example, but its doing this job well.
