[pygame] Windows 95



Hello, This is for anyone who can help me with installing pygame on windows 95.

    I have python 1.5.2 and after looking over pygame I installed 2.0 so I could
use pygame, so I have 2 versions of python now.  For python 1.5.2 I have PySDL
installed and I'm wondering if this may conflict with the C code version of SDL
that pygame requires.  I downloaded pygame and it's dependencies and have them
extracted in "D:\python20\pygame-0.2" and I've run the setup install command and
it copied the needed pyd files and the SDL dll's to "D:\python20\pygame".  Now I
tried the examples and I get an error about "video system not initialized".  I
can import pygame, I've tried that.  I even went into the system registry and
under python 2.0 I added to the Python path,( and I tried library path),
"D:\python20\pygame" to see if it was just trying to find the files but no luck
in running the examples.  I've also tried fooling around with the install files
but it appears it's already installed but not fully functional.  Any suggestions?



    Pygame is great software even though I haven't tried it myself, I was making
something similar for python 1.5.2 all in python code written for PySDL, and I'm
glad that this is available because it'll save me a lot of time.  Thanks pygame
team!

    Useless Note: since I have my paths all set up for python 1.5.2 my python 2.0
has a batch file in the "D:\python" directory which simply has this
"D:\python20\python.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9".  So I execute python 2.0
modules with python20 module.py arg1 arg2 etc...
