I wonder if you guys could answer a question for me...
If I am having a problem with installing a game in Mac mode, and I am quite sure I can solve a problem by attempting to install onto my virtual machine, (Windows I know ) and the disc is a hybrid Mac/PC, how do I get the disc to load the PC files instead of the Mac files? (if it's possible...)
And while I'm at it could I ask the best way to clean a compact disc?

I wouldn't bother with trying to play a game under Virtual PC. Unless its a reeeeeealy old game, it'll either flat out not work or it'll be so slow as to be unplayable.
And to clean a CD, use a microfiber cloth like you'd use for eyeglasses, and wipe gently in a straight line from inner ring to outer.

Virtual PC emulates a S3 Virge which you can't change. That's way below the minimum system ruquirements for any 3d game.

I'm pretty sure Virtual PC doesn't emulate a 3D video card at all. Maybe that's changed in the latest version though.

A S3 Virge is not a 3D accelerator.
