Thanks guys. So far, I am currently trying Mini vMac in my old, updated
64-bit W7 HPE SP1 desktop PC. I got the old Mac ROMs from
https://www.macintoshrepository.org/7038-all-macintosh-roms-68k-ppc- web
page. I extracted its 128K's 1986-03 - 4D1F8172 - MacPlus v3.ROM file
and renamed it to vMac.ROM. I ran Mini vMac.exe and it booted up. I
heard its beep and saw its floppy disk icon with its "?". From what I
read, this is OK. At least it finds an old Mac ROM.
I ran into a new issue according from
https://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/mini_vmac_setup and
http://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/start.html web pages' instructions. I
downloaded and installed the decade old
http://www.emaculation.com/minivmac/StuffItStandard9.zip successfully.
However, running its installed program crashed due to Visual C++ runtime
error as shown in my uploaded
https://image.prntscr.com/image/1F4eXCK0RwCk6aPOmWNyMw.png screen
shot/capture. I can't use the newer StuffIt Expander for Windows version
(http://my.smithmicro.com/stuffit-expander-windows.html) since it
doesn't support *.sea.bin files
(http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/System/Older_System/System_6.0.x/SSW_6.0.8-1.4MB_Disk1of2.sea.bin
and

Argh. :(
Any ideas? Thank you in advance. :)
