Hi herc,

Sorry about not having read your post earlier... As I wrote in my E-mail reply to you - well, you're welcome -, I'm pretty busy these days and couldn't try the game before. I couldn't make it work under Windows XP either but, currently, I have no time to play around with it anyway so I didn't try that "new EXE" yet...

And, yes, I'm running the first, Gold Edition of Windows 98 and am not planning to replace with with Windows 98SE...

Joe

Hey guys,

Windows 98SE supports WDM-style drivers. Many pieces of optional hardware have WDM-style drivers only, not the old VXD-style ones. E.g. I would be unable to use my Sound Blaster Audigy 2 under Windows 98 (Gold Edition), only XP... (Therefore, I use the SB Audigy 1 instead and keep the 2 on the shelf, unused... )

Joe
