Disable Version Checks?
This is a discussion about Disable Version Checks? in the Windows Software category; Hey everyone, There are a ton of programs and driver installations that should work fine in Win2k, if they would just STOP checking the Windows version and dismissing Win2k just like they would BeOS or a Dos.
Hey everyone,
There are a ton of programs and driver installations that should work fine in Win2k, if they would just STOP checking the Windows version and dismissing Win2k just like they would BeOS or a Dos.
My question is this... Is there a program or method to making a setup program think that I'm running NT or Win98? I tried Hex editing, and it simply doesn't work with this particular one. Bad library errors.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks in advance, everyone!

You can use APCOMPAT from the SUPPORT folder on the windows 2000 cd to make programs think you have a diffrent version of windows, i have used this on one setup program before and it did work.
Hope it works for you
