Could anyone explain to me in simple and untechnical language, how I can download this game onto a Windows platform. I've tried that many times and error messages occur as soon as I attempt to open the program. Any assistance greatly appreeciated.

Most excited as the game is running although very slowly and without sound. Big move from where I was! There was some box going on about change and slow rendering etc. I forgot to say that I'm running XP. Thanks

Dust,
Yes, I opened that file ok. When I start the game I get an error message that 'unable to find compatible 3D hardware acceleration etc' Told to post on forum re slow_ software_rendering.
Should I open in Windows 95 compatability mode?
Thanks

if you have xp it should run without any troubles. are you using actual drivers and updates?
