From what little research I've done....

It looks like the only way to get it to play in full screen mode AND be able to save/load is to play in Windows 95 compatibility mode and to disable visual themes. Hope that helps :)

It's in the Compatibility tab. When you right click on the desktop icon, you go to Properties and then to Compatibility. :)

I have installed the game now and i did what you told me it goes full screen mode but the actual game is small and there is a black border around it,

I managed to save the game but i cannot load it as no box appears?

Why is this and do you know a solution?

Regards Paul
