Have you tried using Windows XPs Compatibility Wizard? I'm able to play
TSOMI on Windows XP without problems. I usually set it to Windows 95/98
compatibility.

If you need help on figuring this out, I'm off work until Wednesday, but
I can offer you our self help website: http://support.microsoft.com , or
you can call our company (if you're in the States) 1-800-936-5700. Or,
if you're not in the States, you can look for an International number on
the self help website.

There isn't actually an XP version of the game, but you should be able to
run your original copy through a program called ScummVM. Check out
http://www.scummvm.org/ for more information.

You're forgetting about the Compatibility Wizard thing that Microsoft so
kindly provided with Windows XP.

We're not forgetting it. We're ignoring it. You see, WinXP Compatibility
Wizard is what we call a huge steaming pile of monkey poo".

Post it for XP?
You mean you don't have the game, or that you can't play your game in
XP?
If the second is the case, please go here: www.scummvm.org and
download the ScummVM... Smile

SurprisedÞ
Anyway, I do like ScummVM. It helpful, because it lists all games in
one window, and it's easy to adjust parameters.
Not to mention it bypasses copy protections on several games.
