Will any of the games in the series run in Vista?

Should run fine in DosBox

DosBox had trouble running GNB4 and 5 (Worked without sound and rather poorly in TC), but 1 and 2 work perfectly (Haven't tried 3 yet)

They might have fixed what was interfering with it in the newer DosBox versions, have to check out 4 and 5 again

Thanks for the quick response and info, Raptor1.

Is it possible to still purchase this game from somewhere?

I found a few new and used copies on Ebay and Amazon.

I'm still hope'n that someone, one day, does a remake of Taskforce 1942.

Hi! Are there any instructions how to make GNB4/5 run in XP?

I have most of them I think and I actually was able to download them. If I remember correctly (it has been a year or two), I found them on Home of the Underdogs.... I would have to look again, but I am almost sure that is where I found them all for available download.
