I can remember running Red Alert just fine on my 133 MHz, 16mb RAM , 1 meg video memoey machine (under Windows 95). That's a particularly good DOS computer, and I don't think any DOS game could defeat it.

Yah you can run Win95 just perfect on it. Which will run all windows games from the time inlcuding C&C, Red Alert etc...

I heard 95 was buggy so I'll pass on that Dos/98SE will do me (although 98 is a little slow)

works fine with me...
i think later versions had a lot of bugs fixed and it wont' work s,ow at all on that computer (remember it had 16MB RAM as recomended, so even 32 runs it swell). just make sure you get some version like SE or SP2 :-) dont' know how it was called for 95...

Win 95 will run acceptably on 8 MB, though 16 is recommended.
Win 98 will run on 16 MB, but 32 is a must. |

To help Tom in his particular case, let he please answer this question: When your Win98 lags, do you notice heavy hard disc usage? (Hard disc usage is identifiable by a small light on the CPU usually accompanied by the drawing of a hard disc [a short cylinder]. During heavy usage intervals the light is on for longer than off.)

again my second maschine had 64 MB ram (just because windows required 32 MB - you might notice i always go for double than recomended) and it was running 98SE. was working very smooth. of course upgrading it to 320 later on proved to be quite a big boots.
