Hi there,
actually I don´t know why you´re using setwin95, when you could use apcompat.exe (you can find that tool on the W2K-CD).
Run apcompat.exe, checkmark NT5, and link the autoplay.exe of the Viper-CD to be run. The Viper Racing start´up screen appears, then click play and have fun!
 
(FYI: The same procedure works for Microprose´s EAW, too)

If you are having troubles playing the multiplayer version on windows 2000. Do this:
 
1. Create a shortcut to 'Viper Racing.exe'
 
2. Goto the properties of the shortcut and add -nocanary to the end of the shortcut
 
3. This will let you run it FULLY under windows 2000!!!
 
Hope this helps!
