You know, I really knew nowhere else to come for this. I need help making some old as fuck PC games compatible with Windows 10, I believe they're using the dropped SecureDisc technology, which is hindering every .exe form working. I got Harry Potter and the Chanber of Secrets to work simply by obtaining a cracked .exe, but some of these games are very obscure. Normally I wouldn't go begging a board for assistance, but I did manage to completely nuke my PC in the process of trying to make a fucking Hoyle game to work. Any help actually getting the damn thing running would be nice, but I have a greentext to make you cringe either way:
>After having figured that a cracked .exe was all that was necessary to pass the ancient DRM present on much of turn-of-the-millennium PC software, I sought out one for a game I had coveted since being a wee young lad in the back of my childhood home (a fucking trailer)
>This game was HOYLE BOARD GAMES MOTHERFUCKING 3
>I was finally going to kick Gax's fucking face in after all these years
>I go searching in the same usual manner for a cracked .exe- clicking links I shouldn't, not understanding the languages I'm seeing
>This seems normal
>I find a very peculiar Russian website
>Holy hell, it has board3.exe just sitting there!
>Instantly click without thinking what I'm doing
>Within a minute there are 32 new tabs open in Chrome going to websites I've never heard of in languages I do not understand
>Within two minutes a horde of applications and programs have been installed to my PC
>I'm pretty sure someone's trying to use my PC as an Etherium miner
>Over the course of a few hours I manage to manually quarantine and delete most everything I can find; I ransack every fucking folder I can
>But it's never enough, "Heal Your PC" and "BrowserAir" keep reinstalling and opening more tabs in every fucking browser I have
>Rip out the internet cable
>Whip out an external
>Start gathering every notable file and work I had on this PC, copy it all to the external
>Refresh this motherfucker with the force of a thousand ornery grandmas
>Still not sure if I'm good
I literally nuked my PC just to play a fucking Hoyle game, please help my sorry ass not be retarded
