Any one know how to get WC4 to work on Windows98? I want to play it, bad. But the catch is I can't figure out how to get it to work. If anyone could help me I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

Can't you exit out to DOS mode to play it?

No. It doesn't want to work that way. That's been my big problem, it doesn't work in DOS.

What?? That's really stupid...what happens if you attempt to boot into DOS mode?

There's a WIN95 exe available on the net. I got it working perfectly on WinXP. Didn't play it for long though.

When I try to get it to work in DOS the game just doesn't.
