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]
