Under Windows 95 you can go to the Windows Dos prompt and run ICR2 from
there just fine. No change in framerate at all.

To do this you must load your VESA driver in the config/autoexec files.
Create a batch file indycar.bat:
c:\path\indycar.exe -h
Win95
Now create a shortcut that calls the batch file, run in full window, turn off
the screensaver check box, and turn idle sensitivity to its lowest setting.
Win3.x
Now create an icon that calls the batch file, run in full window. Set advanced
items to retain video memory and high graphics port.
That should work...does for me. Note also that I don't see any appreciable
frame rate degredation running this way with UniVBE that comes w/ ICR2.
