Anyone remember this? Found the disk for it but it won't work with XP or Vista and tried numerous online things but still can't get it to even install 
Anyone know a genuine online place to download a Vista friendly version or a more modern version I should acquire?

Was the only PC game I ever owned for my first PC. Such a good game 
Can't remember exactly, but don't you need to run it in Windows 95/98 compatibility mode?
I know there is a free re-creation of the game online, can't remember the name though....

yeh there is a open source version 
I played it like last year or something, was great - just like the classic!
Although I found it so much easier than I remember as a kid, as soon as you can build air planes you've won.

No, just make sure to follow the instructions on the website for installing the OpenGFX graphics.
