Ask HN: Best way to play old games that require Windows 98/XP?
There's also dxwrapper that implements old DirectDraw/3D interfaces with newer D3D9 api for better compatibility with newer Windows versions:

DON'T buy "The Space Bar" (1997) re-release on Steam!
FYI: The Space Bar re-release features Elisha Riedlinger's DxWrapper (https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper), whose config file is otherwise stock with just FullScreen enabled. I strongly believe they didn't properly test it.

RTX Remix?
RTX Remix uses a custom d3d9.dll though so you additionally need another wrapper such as https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper to customize which dll should be loaded since by default d3d8to9 uses the default system file which will result in translated calls not being redirected to the path tracer used by Remix.

I just got GTA IV: Complete Edition on Steam. Do I HAVE to downgrade or can I play as is?
If you have a GPU that supports DXVK (Basically it forces DXVK to run the game in Vulkan intsead of it's usual DirectX 9, which the DX9 version hates GTA IV and while GTA IV hates DX9 back) and has more than 2GB of VRAM (DirectX Vulkan), then I HIGHLY recommend it: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases (Use this guide to install it: http://ant-sh.blogspot.com/2020/07/gta-4-stutter-choppiness-fix.html. If you want aliasing AND DXVK, use this guide: http://ant-sh.blogspot.com/2021/01/antialiasing-with-dxvk-and-gta-iv.html. If your GPU doesn't support Vulkan, use DxWrapper: https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper/releases).

Ascension to Samsung G9 57’
Yes you can do that with any ultrawide. Simplest way is to just play windowed mode with a 16:9 resolution. If you want it to be 16:9 borderless windowed in the center of the screen you can use BorderlessGaming with a "Set window size" config, though that approach can be a bit inconsistent sometimes.

Game won't run - Help!
Turn off screen rotation lock and rotate the display so it's portrait. This allows us to launch the game without issue into windowed mode (it's full screen landscape that's the problem). Now rotate the screen back to landscape, game will still be running in a window. Now use Borderless Gaming (or your favorite borderless window full screen app) to make the window into full screen. https://github.com/Codeusa/Borderless-Gaming/releases/tag/9.5.6
