It stopped working for me with one graphic card or direct x upgrade (I can't remember which) a few years ago. I'll have to try it again. Another good SSI game that was this > - < close to being a great game with a little more works and some of the more detailed features of the previous GNBNA.

Don't quote me on this, but i think there is a patch available that sorts it out. If not, try running it in win98 compatibility mode.

 Fighting Steal:) Ya I have that game had some fun with it, been a while since I played it though.
