That is probably because you have built
your application to use the Unicode form
of the API's. Windows 9x does not have
the complete complement of Unicode API's.

Because it does not use the Unicode API's.

You chose to link using the DLL form of the
C runtime. If you don't want to do that, and
are not linking against DLL's that use the C
runtime, you can link against a static library
containing the same C runtime entry points.
