   I have TONS of Dos and Win 3.1 software, and most all run fine under
Win95. The exceptions are games like C&C, Duke Nukem and the like and
they WERE NOT written to be Win95 programs, although C&C (gold) did
eventually come out with a new version made for Win95. (Graphics were
MUCH better too).

   I wonder "Bob", what software company is this you work for ?
Sounds like somebody who has trouble setting up software. Win95 is not
perfect, (neither is Dos or Win 3.1 for that matter).

   I know someone can come up with a few programs, I know of one CAD
program that was written specifically for an engineering firm that does
not work but maybe you "Bob the software designer" could give us a list
of the LARGE NUMBER OF PROGRAMS which you cannot get to work, and one of
us generous users will teach you how to set it up to work properly under
Win95.
