Anything that plays in DOS or Windows3.1 will probably work in 95. I'm not at all familiar with your game, but here's what you have to do. If it's a windows game, it'll probably just work inherently. If it's a DOS game, you could play it in windows just by double-clicking on it or you could set up a shortcut to it on your desktop and select the checkbox under the shortcut's properties, program, advanced button that says "MS-DOS mode." If you want to specify your own autoexec.bat and config.sys, you can, but it'll probably work if you just say ok a couple of times and open it up. -nathan strutz http://mrnate.slather.com/ Dr Robert J.
