When I want to play Starcraft in Windows98 , there is a message came out and said that there is no CD in my CD-ROM, so the game can't start. But I really have the CD in it. I also can play the game in Windows95 . So, could anyone help me? Thankyou !!

Maybe your computer sucks? Either that or you haven't installed the CD-ROM yet. I am running Win 98 and my starcraft runs great! Or maybe you just plain forgot to put the cd in... hmmmm?

I hear that it is not the problem of pirate CD or Original Copy, someone says there is a bug of a file of Windows98 that affect the CD drive, he says the solution is copy the same file from Windows95 to replace the one in Windows98, I forget to copy the name of the file from that newsgroup . . . . . .

There have been numerous postings in the newsgroup on the subject, try searching for them. Among the possibilities -- * reinstall Starcraft from the CDRom drive you are trying to use * remove all DOS CDRom drivers from config.sys and autoexec.bat * Get rid of Win98 before it strangles you in your sleep -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own

It's hard to say Windows 98 can play Starcraft or not, because Win98 has many version, user of Hongkong mainly use English, Chinese(Taiwan), Chinese(Hongkong), OEM, Beta, Release. . . . . . if you visit newsgroup, you will find some says "OK!" but some say "No!" For me, I can play starcraft on Win98 but I cannot play Diablo on it, although they come from the same game company. But some guys says they can play Diablo on Win98 but they cannot play Starcraft on Win98. . . . . It's seems "Overwrite from Win95(any-version) to %Win98%\System\IOSubSys\CDFS.vxd" (this solution is from other, not me!) is worth to try!

I went from Windows 95 to Windows 98, and have had no problem with ANY programs running at all... but my friend upgraded, and had all kinds of problems. Just re-install StarCraft totally, and try that... and if that doesn't work... um... hope ya' didn't delete your 'uninstall windows 98' options...
