Nascar Racing Under Win95 - How I made it happen

Create a DOS batch file that runs the game (with the -h parameter). Then open a DOS window and run the batch file. I get sound and everything.

Hi Jeff, With my NASCAR, I had no problem running under Windows'95. I just set the properties so that the program would not detect Windows and to run in strict DOS MODE. The only downer of this way is that the system has to reboot to load the game and when you exit it reboots the system to get back to Windows 95. TTYL John Goedhart

By running it thru a batch file in a win95 dos window, the system doesn't require the reboot.
