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: ).

Try Orbiter. It's free:

Thanks for the link but I'm already an orbiter user since early 2003 (i found out about orbiter accidentaly looking for a way to make MSSS run on my computer).
Orbiter is cool, but Microsoft Space Simulator was in a league of its own.
Call it nostalgia, but playing MSSS in svga 800x600 with no 3d acceleration and a whole galaxy to explore was such a great experience.
Man how I wish MS had continued the development of this space simulator, in my opinion it was way better than flilght simulator.

Seems that Windows Vista will be a relatively short lived one

Congratz to all windows user
If I'm right, the new windows will be a resource saving one, after microsoft recifying its system resource hog policy. It is said that the new windows core is only 50Mb in size.

In that case, most current systems can enjoy the benefit of the new system.
