I've noticed no qual setups with a win95 install.

Also, I noticed a delay when trying to load cars to be painted.

Is there any difference in game play/frame rate?

There really is no difference, as the same version of the game is
installed for both (N2 is a DOS game).  The Win95 install program has a
few bugs, one of which is it forgets to install the QUAL setups.
Playing through Win95 might cost a fps or two, but really it's no big
deal.

OK.  I'm going to reload N2 from dos.  Do I need to delete the N2 files
from my hard disk first or just run the install from dos and let it
overwrite?

Thanks!

Either way would work.  I'd delete and install it fresh to be sure
though.
