I dunno whether that'll work with a game so old though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzo Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 You will not be able to run this game from windows Vista, as the message suggests it wont support full screen 16bit.You can however download DosBox and run it from a window within Vista Let me know if you have any problems.
