Does somebody know of a good N64 emulator compatible with a Windows ME? Also, a good DOOM 64 ROM? My N64 got trashed, so I sold the games. I still hate myself for it....

I'd try Project 64: http://de.utilidades-utiles.com/download-project64-windows-me.php
This should work on ME.

Rom-Freaks isn't bad: http://www.rom-freaks.net

I checked, and it's got Doom 64 (http://www.rom-freaks.net/download-9754-file-Doom_64.html), though if I were you, I'd just play the original doom; I recommend zdoom. Emulator controls are often a bit weird, as they also have to emulate gamepad controls, which can cause problems, unless you have a gamepad for your PC. Platformers are a pain in the ass for example.

Next time just google this stuff though. It's not that hard to find.

I tried google, and every other emulator failed for me. and for the record, DOOM 64 is the only DOOM I don't own. Anymore.

it's xp itself, i figured you should bring yourself up to date with the year 2001 before proceeding

Yeah, Millenium Edition is like Vista to the 20th power.

I prefer the ME to XP. It reminds me of the glory days of Windows, back before Bill Gates was as big a soulless bastard.

seriously. you can set XP to use legacy graphics if you're really that queer about it, but there is literally no benefit to using ME over any other Microsoft OS.

that, and I'm pretty sure ME was gates' largest foray into being a soulless bastard.

Naw, the ME was his last work before he decided 'Hey, I think I'm going to screw over everybody with large technical issues, and complicated programming!' Seriously, I've been able to fix ANY problem on ANY Windows OS before 2000 since I was like 9.
Obviously excluding the ME. Maybe? *Dun duuuun*

I used to work in vigilante PC repair and we rued the day we had to work with an ME system, let alone the days people wanted us to integrate them with the rest of their network.

ME is a such a piece of garbage that it's not even funny. You being used to the way it works doesn't excuse it from its crimes.

For example, just because I own a large amount of CD-i games, the system doesn't become GOOD automatically.

Dude, I just like the ME. It works best for me. Always has, always will. Get over it.
Plus, it was free.

ME is a pile of wank. They just took 98, broke it, added Spider Solitaire and released it.
I'm sure someone could install a copy of AIDS into your arse for free but it wouldn't make it any better.

Seriously, what's wrong with it? Ever since I've had it I've never had any troubles with it, and it was hooked up to the net with no firewalls. My XP, on the other hand, wasn't even hooked up to the net and it somehow got corrupted and died. It is currently a smashed piece of shit in a ditch down the street, where it belongs.

The fact that it will leech all bandwidth and suck the living ram out of any computer networked with it, for one. All for no purpose other than the fact that it could. If you hated someone, you could stealthily install a small Mini-Itx box with ME loaded onto it on their network and reek true havoc. Seriously, it sucks. Bad.
