I don't know ;but maybe the lack of FPU make Mma not work correctly. Also in Win95 there is no emulator calling, like threre was in Win 3.1 by win87em.dll so.................... However you have the right to contact Wolfram at this address: student-support at wri.com when you discover something ; well let me know: I'm just curious to know the exact reason why It doesn't work! :-)) Luca
