Re: Squad Command on the DS / PSP

Between saving the world and having a spot of tea Erik Setzer said

I also have a Microsoft Virtual PC machine running Windows 95 and
Direct X 3 so I can play it occasionally.

Is that actually necessary to run it, or can you run it in XP using
Compatibility mode?

Yes it is necessary because the screen modes are not supported by later
versions of Direct X. The beauty of runninh the VPC is that you can also
window what was once only a full screen game.
