The utility program is called VID2EVA (http://www.vid2eva.com/) I'm not sure what other commands or parameters invoked by this batch file is specific to NT-based OS's, but this one in particular seems somewhat important. Is there an equivalent function or statement that can be used to replace this command when run under win-98? The batch file itself is about 163 kb in size, and it can be downloaded as part of this archive: http://eoi.lefti.net/stuff/eva9000beta/VID2EVA%20Stable%20Releases/VID2EVA-2009-06-18.zip A direct link to the batch file is here: http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/7/19/2010382/VID2EVA.zip I had to rename it from .bat to .txt for fileden to accept it.
