I had a Microsoft game certified for their Win98 interfaces never get past the splash screen on WinNT. That one was certified to provide said interfaces.

Game? Try Microsoft OFFICE 97. Does not work in Windows7/64 bits. Oh, you can run it inside that virtual machine thingy, but it is so complex that NO end-users here at the shop (amongst a sample of a hundred or so) could bother to learn it.
Ten years of Fedora Posted Oct 3, 2013 21:58 UTC (Thu) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] Even Microsoft has limits. Yes, it supports stuff for much longer than Linux vendors do, but 16 years old package (Ok, 12 years old at the time Windows 7 was released) is too old even for Microsoft. Microsoft clearly indicated that you should have upgraded over ten years ago, after all, it's not as if you had no advance notifications about the need to do that.
Ten years of Fedora Posted Oct 3, 2013 22:01 UTC (Thu) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] WinNT was never sold as an upgrade to Windows 9X. Not even Windows 2000. Only Windows XP did. And if you'll consider the fact that it had completely revamped internal architecture and everything then it's surprising to see how few hiccups were there with Windows98 to WindowsXP upgrade.
