Yeah, I'm falling all over myself to upgrade so I can test your program after reading that.
(Running Win98, and will continue to run Win98 until I either get a new computer or have to regularly run a program that won't work on Win98.)

More power to you. It'll run fine on 98 (with the .NET Framework.) It's '95 that it won't work on.

*shrug* Your call. On a properly updated machine it won't be a problem.

i did the windows update, then tried the game. no change. i checked control panel > Add/Remove Programs. Microsoft .NET Framework is not there. and the other link says .NET Framework is 108 MB, which would take several hours on my AOhelL. any other suggestions?

The SDK is 108 MB. The Redistributable, which is what you want if you can't figure out how to get it via Windows Update, is 24 MB. Which I admit is still a lot if you are on dialup, and I understand if you didn't want to bother just to run a silly little Jeopardy calculator app.
(But I also point out that since MS is adopting .NET as their development platform, that most people are gonna need it eventually.)

yah. maybe some other time. :)
