I can't get T2 wheel to work with GP2 after I installed Windows 98. It worked fine prior to the Win 98 upgrade. I can get Windows 98 to calibrate and recognize the wheel, but GP2 won't. Any suggestions? HJW

Yes it does, no problems at all. But be sure to use the DOS version of Win98 though. DOS 6.22 and earlier don't 'know' about FAT32. Only DOS software that tries to access a FAT32 disk directly instead of through DOS will cause problems.

Create a shortcut to command.com. Customize the autoexec and config files for this shortcut and double-click it. Your computer will reboot into DOS and you will be all set. When finished running GP2, just reboot your computer and it will boot back to Win95.. no problem. CR
