Changing ioSpecial.ini in Modern UI and Win 9x

I'm changing Contrib/Modern UI/ioSpecial.ini to accomodate a longer product name, with the current settings if you have a long product name the text wraps and you can't see the whole string at the start of the Welcome Page "Welcome to ${MUI_PRODUCT} Setup Wizard".

Here are the values I've changed it to:

[Settings]
Rect=1044
NumFields=3
[Field 1]
Type=bitmap
Left=0
Right=109
Top=0
Bottom=193
Flags=RESIZETOFIT
[Field 2]
Type=label
Left=120
Right=315
Top=10
Bottom=45
[Field 3]
Type=label
Left=120
Right=315
Top=55
Bottom=185 
With Windows 2000, this works as expected. However with Windows 9x the entire Welcome Page doesn't render any text or the bitmap.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

(note: with older versions of InstallOptions.dll it actually crashes by causing a page fault when loading the Welcome Page with this .ini configuration)

Your INI file works perfectly fine for me on both XP and 98. Are you sure that's the only thing you have changed?
