Game installs if you use compatiblity mode for Win98/Me. Strange since it was designed for XP. Performance doesn't seem to be as good as on XP (32 bit) but the game does seem more stable on my setup. |

Running with Windows 98/ME compatablity and disabling Visual Themes and Disabling Desktop Composition, the program seems to run fine. No major issues. Hard to tell if there is a performance hit because this is a totally rebuilt system for me.

Installed fine, without Vista yelling at me, but the game will still not run. No matter what combination of compatibility options I use. It will start to load, then crash out. When the box comes up that gives me the option to check online for a solution, that does not work either Dell Inspiron 1300, 1 gig ram + 1 gig ready boost (Cruzer 2 gig, 1 gig set aside for ready boost), Vista x86 |

This game works great under vista (i have a good graphics card so i don't see the difference but there is a difference). In order to make the game work, you have to rename the MOVIES folder in the game folder, it wont have those movies but it'll work swell. |
