In the "Win 95?" thread down below, you mentioned that you're not certain of what classes are called in the client executable. Well, allow me to list them for you... these are what I traced out for WinXP pro build 2600:
DDraw.dll - Dirrect Draw, included in DirrectX bundle
DSound.dll - Dirrect Sound, included in DirrectX bundle
WS2_32.dll - A old screen setting dll if I'm not mistaken. Included even in DOS boxes
Kernel32.dll - OS kernel for win NT based platforms, included in well Windows NT
User32.dll - User loader for win NT based platform, included once again in windows NT
Gdi32.dll - gonna sound stupid, but I think this is Grahpic related for Dll for windows, not quite certain...
Ole32.dll - OLE linking, only so you could embed the image and sound and basically everything into the game. It should come with the OS, if not, Dirrect X will fix it.
So as I mentioned, the NT ones are only needed for win NT, the others you can pretty much obtain with just windows alone... get dirrectX on the 9X boxes and they'll all work properly... I think
Bror please read - It's about classes called

Direct Draw can be installed on Windows 95, so this DLLs can't be the reason.
WS2_32.dll is a networking DLL. It can be installed additional to Windows 95 (Illarion doesn't run anyway).
I guess a GDI.dll is installed in Win 95 too (I think GDI=Graphic Device Interface i.e. the standard routines for the graphics adaptor).
I am not sure about the OLE one, but I have no windows 95 system here to test.
