What's the verdict Win95 — declared parent_msg_num=(none), resolved parent_id points to #(none)
Does 3DS4 work with Windows 95? If so what do I have to do to get it to work.
Kindest regards,

Raymond,
I am running 3DS on a Windows 95 system and it works fine. You just run it in
"MS-DOS Mode". What this means is that when you click on the 3DS icon the
computer re-boots and runs in what is, essentially, DOS 7. When you leave 3DS
the machine re-boots again and goes back to Windows. Kind of a kludge but it
has one great advantage which is that each program running in MS-DOS mode can
have its own, private, AUTOEXEC.BAT & CONFIG.SYS. Very nice if you have
programs with different configuration requirements like a CD-ROM for one but
not for another. Another plus is that this version of "DOS" seems to make more
conventional memory available.

I have had no problem running 3DS under win95, it's slower, unless I exit to
DOS mode, but it is possible.
When I upgraded to Win95, my previous windows version was configured to run 3DS
(see the manual), loading the windows pharlap driver.
