Not quite sure why this is a syslinux issue since you have no troubles
with the syslinux part, right? Well, anyway, can you be more specific
about what you mean by compatibility mode? It really sounds like
you're referring to the compatibility mode that Windows 2K and XP
provide, which is compatibility with things that require 9x versions
of Windows. However, Windows 9x doesn't need any kind of special
compatibility mode to make it compatible with Windows 9x... I'm
running a Win98SE system for a HTPC/retrogaming system, and it works
great with Daemon Tools and basically every game I have that can run
on a system with a mere P3-500 and a RivaTNT.
