Doom 3 for Windows 98 & ME - Here's how to run it.

[g8crapachino]

Why are people still wasting their time with Windows 98 or ME?

There's a really good reason why ID-software chose not to support Windows 9x....it's unstable, inefficient, and slow. Not to mention Windows 9x doesn't support anything about 512megs meaning anyone running it will never be able to fully appreciate Doom3 at it's maximum visual settings.

A truly heartwarming speech, but as you mentioned in it, this thread isn't for trolling and debating the best OS. So let's leave it on topic please.

I am looking into it for some other programs which won't run. It would be a more universal solution. I am actually a little surprised that this works since GlobalMemoryStatusEx requires a return value whereas GlobalMemoryStatus does not. But, ID must have used it in such a way where if its not a bool it doesn't matter.
