That's because the current IR tower requires USB and Windows 95 didn't support USB (well, except for Windows 95B but I think most of the USB drivers were custom/non-standard). It might work with Windows 95 if you get the old serial tower. I picked a (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Folks, Could someone please tell me if Lego Mindstorms works with Windows 95 ? The Lego Web site says that it works with Windows 98 BUT NOT with 2000/NT. Nothing about 95. Please help. Harpreet ======== (23 years ago, 2-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I would have to agree with Rob here. If the Spybots can not communicate with other Mindstorms stuff then they become a 30 day toy. Its amazing the Lego price for a short-term kit is $60.00.
