As many of you have undoubtedly already noticed, Windows 3.0
enhanced can be a little picky about running some DOS application,
and games seem to be the first to fail.
I'd like to compile a list of games that do and do not work under
Windows 3.0 enhanced, so that I can have some idea of what is and
isn't good to buy, and what I can hope to fix (by swapping versions).
If you have tried to run games under Windows 3.0 in enhanced mode,
I would greatly appreciate the following information:
which games? (name and publisher)
did it work - why/why not?
date/time stamp and name of the executable
version number
If there is any interest I'll post a summary. PLEASE direct all
replies to:
quimby@mts.rpi.edu, quimby@rpitsmts.bitnet

but we really don't know which versions. We've never
