H2V on XP?

[Patrickssj6]

Someone on my MSN acquired some files (from an illegal source)...

I gave Korn the files...so he can check if this is fake or not...but it seems very plausible...

Discuss.

Um, in that second screen it says XP yet its using a vista theme....

It would be very easy to fake using VirtualPC and a copy of XP running on Vista. Have the XP prompts be run through VirtualPC and run H2V on Vista.

Is it though?

In the first picture you see my name in MSN...the guy has no idea how to do anything with PCs so I doubt he faked it...

hmmm...i think H2V can be on XP because on wikipedia, i researched Halo 2 PC and it gave me this link. I'm going to find it.

This guy posted a program/programs for it on GF:

Apparently it works, but has problems. There are updates further on. Not convinced myself.

From what I understand it only lets you play SP, no MP.

Hmm? The program labelled Wowloader implies it launches Windows-On-Windows... think a 32-bit emulator on XP-64 (I believe it was called WOW64 in that case). If its named aptly then -- sure it might be possible to emulate Vista on XP.

File being emulated:

dwmapi.dll, mf.dll, MFPlat.dll
