I still don't get why I get an error message saying my machine doesn't run Windows 95 when I try to install ST: Borg. What gives?

I have a Win XP Pro btw...

You're running XP. The error message says you aren't running 95. Sounds like the error message knows exactly what it's talking about.

There's some way in XP to trick a program into thinking it's running on 95, but I don't have an XP machine handy to look up the specifics.

That trick being Compatibility Mode. I'm sure you can take it from there, big boy.
