gerliczer: you are a very wise man and gave me a cool idea. Why I didn't think about that? I used to use VirtualBox in the past and installed some kind of windows, so I grabbed for them (.VDIs) again and tried out your notion:
Yes, I am running 6 different (exactly +1 as host (Win8.1), so 7) operating systems at the same time: Windows 3.1 (4fun), Windows 95 OSR2, Windows 98 SE, Windows ME, Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista Ultimate (this last one has just been installed yesterday) on Oracle VirtualBox 6.0.14
After a little rummage: Windows 3.1: no way, there is no .NET Windows 95 OSR2: the same as before no dotNET Windows 98 SE: installing Windows Installer, Internet Explorer 5.5 and .NET2 in vain, because LUMYDCTT needs .NET4.0 at least. Windows ME: the same as before, the highest version of .NET is 2.0 on this system, too. Windows XP SP2: after installing ServicePack3 and .NET4.0, I managed to run LUMYDCTT at 800x600, 1152x864, 1280x1024... without any errors Windows Vista Ultimate: installing only .NET4.0 and getting success
