nah... PC games...
you can download them using P2P programs...
and you can use an emulator to play them...
apparently... (im going by what ive been told...)
if there is an .ISO file in there, you have to mount it on something called DAEMON-tools, which plays the game...
=S
i just need someone to tell me how to get and use this program...

Daemon Tools should be able to use it, as it's almost identical to ISOs. If you don't know how to use Daemon Tools, I suggest burning it with Nero by selecting "Burning Image".

If that doesn't work, you downloaded a corrupt file.

You mean an OS/hardware emulator for PC games? That would be handly for a particular Win95/98 game that doesn't want to work in compatibility mode, and one game is way fast because it was made for the much slower clock speeds, but I don't have much of a collection of old games so there isn't much reason for it.

Daemon Tools won't download onto my computer... it says " the platform is not recognised" or something..
and nero won't work on my computer for some reason...
it crashes it so i had to get rid of it...

If Nero doesn't work, grab a program like DVD Decrypter (free). It will allow you to burn an ISO to a DVD, which is playble on most DVD players. (Use mode "ISO->Write".)

This you can't download it anymore (brought by third party), I found a download.

Hope that helps.

And I'm not sure about Windows emulation, sorry =S
