Not modal yet. The problem is that Wine as a general rule doesn't support VXDs. As with most "rules", there may be an occasional exception, but probably not in this case. Some programs use VXDs when run under Win98 but not under WinNT or Win31. So that is why the suggestion for trying those. > > Now, my question is this: since I have a WIndows 98 installation that > wine detected, should I change my Windows version in .wine/config to > 'nt40' or 'win31', per the messages above?

If it was still complaining about a VXD, then unfortunately, I think that pretty much means you are hosed :-( Unless you have access to the code for the VXD, and good coding skills ;) > > Is it "safe" to specify OTHER Windows versions that don't match the > version Wine detects during its installation? Generally, yes. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
