I'm writing games with the allegro 2.1 toolkit library and DJGPP v2.01.

When my program runs the allegro function "install_timer()", Windows95
pops up a window that says "This program may not run well under Windows.
Do you want to create a shortcut to run this program in DOS mode?"

Of course, I click on "NO", and the game runs just fine.

BUT, is there a way to keep Win95 from displaying this message?  I would
rather not distribute a game that makes the user do this, since many
people would "panic" when they see a message like that.

Thanks for any info/tips,
Ed Federmeyer
