Cause

Consequently, Windows 98 disables all hardware acceleration when the multi-
monitor option is enabled.

Solution

Disable the multi-monitor option:

1. Right-click your desktop, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu.

2. In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Settings tab.

3. Clear the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor check box.

Cause

which Windows 95 cannot identify properly.
