No, not Pink Floyd.

Has anyone tried running this game under windows 7? It's notorious for not showing the text on XP or Vista.

I've been trying to play this game for years and am wondering if windows 7 will do the trick.

I had a look around & didn't find out much except someone asked on the dosbox site about running under xp & they were told no it won't work.

Only 53 people have voted they would like to see it on gog.

hey, 3 months later and I just checked this post.

Thanks Plumgas. Finally got this thing running again 10 years later.

Know anyway to deal with the disk swapping?

install daemon tools lite & setup virtual drives, create iso files of the cd's & the mount them.
if this works on dos box add the mount command to the config file so all the virtual drives get mounted.
