- MSVC++ 1.0 is a very old compiler, so don't wonder, if it dosn't do what you want...
- There are really Windows-Extenders around here, e.g. Watcom C++ 10.5 has one.
- But this means that you get the advantage of the 32-bit Intel-architecture like 32 bit integers,
- flat data & code segments etc.
- Windows 95 is originally a 32 bit environment, a WinExtender isn't required.
