Lucied Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I have a quick question. I'm getting ready to move to Linux soon, and I was wondering if it is possible to run TEW (2005 and/or 2007) and Wrestling Spirit (1 and/or 2) in Linux using WINE. I'm fairly sure that the VB6 runtime works in WINE. But, I don't know about the other parts of the programs, or even ELicense. I figured I'd ask :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartman Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 eLicense still doesn't work with Wine, so that will be your showstopper. VMware is your best bet on Linux, but that is still a Windows VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could I make a VM for the free VMware Player using a "restore disc" from another computer? My current WinXP machine is dead, I'm getting a new one soon, and the computer I'm using now has Win98. So I have Win98 and WinXP restore discs. So, I know that there are tools to create a Windows VM using install discs, but can you use restore discs? I mean, we own a valid license for them.
