    Well right click it if its an exe file and under the compatibility tab, see if you can set it to run for Windows 95!

    if the installation file was an exe file Praetor then, you could change the compatibility of it and the installation might run?

    Very clever... i didnt think of that one! Although I dont think it is very common that installers have OS issues although i guess it is possible :)

    Hello edriver, I just wanted to be clear about some things. Is this game for Windows 95 and you have Windows XP? And you want to install it? When you played it or talked to someone who played it, did it run in DOS? IF that is the case then you will need eDOS. this is an emulator that is really good at emulating dos programs in XP or 2000 that are not DOS based. If it is a special program writen for Windows95, then it should work in WinXP. Just instal as normal and see if plays. IF not you can always uninstall.
