An old windows 98? And where can I find a retail version?

DW's system requirements are as follows:

Minimum Specifications
- Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP
- 550Mhz processor
- 128 MB RAM
- Eight-speed CD-ROM drive
- Direct 3D compliant Video Card with 32MB RAM, (with DirectX 9.0b compatible drivers)
- Sound Card with DirectX 9.0b compatible drivers
- Desktop Resolution of 800x600 @ 16-bit color depth
- 590MB hard-drive space for installation
- Internet or LAN connection required for multiplayer

Recommended System
(upgrades from minimum specs)
- 1GHz+ processor
- 256 MB RAM
- Direct 3D compliant Video Card with 64MB RAM, (with DirectX 9.0b compatible drivers)
- 1GB hard-drive space for installation

So if you have Win98SE and your system meets all the other requirements then you should be good to go.

Should your system not meet these specs then I would suggest Sub Command as an alternative. I had SC running on Win98 with a Pentium II with 96 Megabyte of RAM and 32 Megabyte of video memory.

Have any ideas of stores that would have a retail version of DW?

I know that you can purchase and download it on STEAM. You can also order it from http://www.strategyfirst.com/product...imulation.html

It's $14.99 there.
I've also seen it on Amazon.com
