www.tnm7.de/cgi-bin/rmcms.cgi?module=shop&action=si&layout=pricelist_reg&query=Only the main page is down. However, at this point, I can't really recommend buying TNM. I don't think that Oliver would rip anyone off because he's sketchy or anything, but TNM is long dead, and I'm not sure how active he is in processing orders. On top of that, it will not run on modern computers without fairly crippling limitations.

If you're using a 64bit OS, you can still get it to run on a virtual machine or through DOSBox. Using a virtual machine is slow and laggy and it requires you to have access to a 32bit OS disc, using DOSBox is slow and laggy and means that modern plug-ins won't work. If you're running a 32bit OS on a modern machine, TNM will work fine, but 32bit machines are becoming increasingly rare.
If you're not using a 32bit OS, no matter what you do, you're basically getting a half-satisfactory experience these days.
If you're looking for a booking sim similar to TNM you can try my AWE sim (sorry for the shameless self-promotion), which is free (though if you like it, you can donate), and can be found in the AWE section of this forum. It run on modern windows and does a good deal of what TNM (though not all of it) and some things that TNM didn't do.

Id like to check it out more, is there a website i can check out, like what can it do or not do compared to TNM

There's no webite, just the forums here.
As far as what it does the same: Match booking and circuit management is very similar in both programs. Both are more "tools" than "games".
What it does that TNM doesn't: Allows for editing and saving of cards before their run. Interviews make use of worker AND manager stats and play a part in determining their heat. Retired wrestlers can be hired as road agents to help boost match ratings. Better management of contracts (in my opinion). There's no longer a need for a "card multiplier". Backstage incidents happen in AWE. Career ending injuries are possible. Basic TV/PPV contract management. Runs on modern machines without the need for compromise, lag, or separate programs.
What TNM does that AWE Doesn't: 3 and 4 way Tag Team matches. (3 and 4 way singles matches are possible in AWE, but they can't be done with tag teams at this point.) Auto-booking Tournaments (tournaments are possible, both booked and unbooked, in AWE, but there is no auto-booking for tournaments. Everything has to be manually booked.) Play-by-play of matches. (AWE only gives results.) Stables. (Once again, it's possible, it's just not as intuitive as it is in TNM.)

OK, I need major help with this.
I've set up a virtual Vista machine using VMware I've downloaded the trial version and Dosbox to the virtual machine. I just cant figure out how to access the folder where TMN7 is through DOSBox.

If you're using Dosbox you don't need a virtual machine.
