starry nights
Yes was wondering if anyone had any success with running starry nights
on windows 95 . I know on the web site it lists 98/ME/2000/XP ,but quite a few apps leave out 95,and it works just fine - Including Netscape 7,which I'm posting from. Then again,some don't. Low end machine too P2 333 32mb v card,which might also be a factor. |

Software wich run under Win98 should work fine under 95 as long that you got the latest upgrades likes DirectX9, Media Player 7 and Winsock 2 and a few others... Benoît Morrissette |

Benoît Morrissette thanks for the reply. The last version of DX that can be used on 95 is 8,which I have. I suspect that is the reason some games and apps refuse to run on 95. |

Your suspicions are very right. If you have at least 64 mb in your machine, you should be able to use Win98 widh i found is the best compromise to run most of the newest games and all the oldest DOS games. Benoît Morrissette |
