| Has anyone found a way to make this sim run with a modern computer using
windows xp? like f18?

| It worked for me the first time I tried it, though the graphics are so poor
compared to sims of the last couple of years, I had no interest in playing
it. I don't believe i did anything special, it just worked. Good luck

What vieo card? It won't run in D3D on a Radeon 9x series card. Have
to run it in software mode unless you get a glide emulator. It runs
fine in XP otherwise.

XP to run it in Win85 mode

| Have you tried running it on XP? I did, and don't recall having any
problem. However, the intimdating manual kept me from getting too far
into the game before I decided to try another sim....which also was far
too intimidating to get into. About 3 some odd years ago, I picked up
the newer game, "F-18" and had all sort of compatibility problems
requiring a patch (though the final results look better than F-15).
