Issues unresolved
Corrupted graphics (Windows version)
- The Windows version does not work on modern versions of Windows.[1] Use the DOS version instead (included on the same CD).
Sound card error on launch (DOSBox)
- The DOS version will briefly show a red screen on launch warning about a sound card configuration error (all audio will work correctly despite this as long as the settings set with
INSTALL.EXE
match the settings reported by DOSBox).[2] - Full error message (English): "You may have selected an incorrect sound card. Please re-run install and select correct sound card."
