    yeah,just keep in mind that win95 is not supported anymore. You just need the .NET framework installed on the OS

    Actually I don't believe the framework will install on 95 only on 98 and higher. And the IDE to develope requires 2k or higher.

    I took a .NET compiled .EXE I've been working on to a friend's PC (he has Windows ME) and it worked surprisingly smoothly. Not sure why MrPolite had a hard time but for me it was a pretty clean deal.

    I ran a small VB.NET compiled executable on a windows 98 machine after installing the CLR. Couldn't have run cleaner!
