Hi guys,

George_K is right. Apparently, in DOOM 3's case, the game _developer_ created a game that runs fine under Windows 98; however, the game _publisher_ asked them to make it NOT work so the developers did a little check. And, fortunately, it was really a little check, something that can easily be gotten rid of.

But this is only DOOM 3 and iD Software. Others don't give a damn about good old Windows 98 anymore so even the game _developer_ takes no steps for Windows 98 support...

Joe
