Sadly on xp I've never been able to make it run, not even on virtual pc or dos box.
In the end it was a small price to pay for STABILITY and so I ditched 98 for Xp the moment it was released (yeah I was crazy for change :rotfl: ).
Hmm.... A challenge. I will look into it!

PS. I loved Space Sim back in the day too - the UFO's, etc. Anyway, I will have to unbury that software or find it on a retro site first. I assume its a DirectX problem though, so it may be unsolvable. DX was supposed to be backwards compatible, but its truely not.
