We used to play it on the old Win 95 box - that's how old it is - so although a Google search found details on setting it up I wasn't really expecting any success. Only thing is that it's supposed to be for a 640 x 480 monitor so the game's window on my 1280 x 1024 LCD screen is not much bigger than this post reply box. :p Still, I'm sure my little eight-year-old niece will appreciate it and will probably be better than I am at solving the puzzles. I still haven't found the rope to get that darn hare yet. :rolleyes: One thing that's a bit annoying is that I thought the characters would be able to run a bit faster on this machine but no, they still take their merry time moving from one scene to the next. :annoyed: Hmm..... I wonder if I can get Sam and Max working too? :p	FoxyMX (5)

It ran on Win95 and I thought the graphics were mind blowing! The characters in that strolled everywhere as well ... :rolleyes:	Jen (38)
