Operating System Requirements

Windows* 98 Operating System Requirements
The Intel® 810 chipset family based products are designed to be compatible with Windows 98. Unlike Windows 95, Windows 98 supports USB without an additional supplement required. DirectX* 5.0 technology is also built into the operating system.

Windows* 95 Operating System Requirements
The Intel 810 chipset family is compatible with Windows* 95 retail version through OSR 2.5.

Note: 3D acceleration in OpenGL* or Direct3D* applications will not work with OSR 1 or retail, although these operating systems are supported with 2D applications.

Correct version of Windows 95 installed in my system
To determine the version of Windows 95 you are running, follow these steps:

  1. Click on Start / Settings / Control Panel.
  2. In Control Panel, double-click System.
  3. Click the General tab.
  4. Locate the version number under the System heading and then see the following table:
Version number Version of Windows* 95
4.00.950 Windows 95
4.00.950a Windows 95 plus the Service Pack 1 Update, or OEM Service Release 1.
4.00.950b OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2)
4.00.950c OEM Service Release 2.5 (OSR2.5)

For 3D acceleration in OpenGL* or Direct3D* applications, the Intel® 810 chipset family based products require OSR2.1 or OSR2.5 with the USB Supplement. Note that if you are running OEM Service Release version 2.1, you see the version number 4.00.950b (the same as OSR2) when you follow the steps above.

To determine whether you are running OSR 2.1, check for "USB Supplement to OSR2" in the list of installed programs in the Add/Remove programs tool in Control Panel, and check for version 4.03.1212c of the Ntkern.vxd file in the Windows\System\Vmm32 folder.

Windows 95 should have been pre-installed on your computer. These installations are referred to as OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) installations. To determine whether you have an OEM installation of Windows 95, follow these steps:

  1. In Control Panel, double-click System.
  2. Click the General tab.
  3. Locate the Product ID number under the Registered To heading. This number typically contains 20 digits. If digits 7, 8, and 9 contain the letters "OEM," you have an OEM installation of Windows 95. For example, the following sample Product ID number indicates an OEM installation:

12345-OEM-6789098-76543

If you are using an OEM installation of Windows 95, you should contact your computer's manufacturer for Windows 95 support.
