Creative has 2 versions of Play.exe on that original website. The
DOS/win3.1 package has play.exe v1.01 ... There is, however another
file for Win95 supposedly but which says it's for DOS boot only ... and
that has version 1.03 of play.exe.
I downloaded the file with the newer version of play. Anyone want's it
sent to them to fool with, contact me private & I'll extract, rezip &
attach to return mail.
l.d.
