This latest version only supports Windows 2000 and later. But if you are the users of windows 95 or 98, the version 0.8.2 is your choice. But this version of Windows are not officially supported. No VideoLAN developer uses any of these systems, which makes them hard to support. VLC should mostly work with them, but some incompatibilities might appear. You need to download The Microsoft Layer for Unicode on Windows 95/98/Me Systems. And put the two MSLU files in the C:WindowsSystem folder.
