I ordered this game from Amazon.com. They sent it to me via their merchant J&R Music World. It was advertised as being Windows XP compatible. However, after I installed the game and noticed that it wasn't compatible did I see that the box states that the product was meant for Windows 95/98/Me. I have written to J&R Music World and I am hoping that I will get a full refund. I am greatly surprised, due to having had much wonderful experience with Amazon.com. So..be careful when ordering P.C games. I noticed on Amazon's refund policy they will not give a refund if the item has been removed from plastic cover. In my case (faulty advertising) I believe I should get a refund. BE CAREFUL !!

The games are compatible with Windows XP. In some cases with Windows XP an error message may appear but it is easily fixed with a program update. The questions are challenging, love the games although I am not much of a sports buff. The multi-player mode is a bit cumbersome and confusing however.

Loved it....but.....

I am highly impressed with the above...matter of fact, a friend of mine recently had me order another copy so he could give it as a gift. I also have the singles, one and two addition. But there is a BIG PROBLEM. I live in an assisted living residence and our activity director would like to include the game in our programs. Much to our disappointment, the CD does NOT work on a DVD and big screen so that it can be a group participation. I have tried everywhere that I can think of and much to my dis-appointment, I have not been able to find it in DVD. I did get one from the UK and we tried it. It was okay but included many questions concerning England that couldn't be answered by our residents. Would you please advise.....is there a DVD of the above available and where can I order it? If not, is there any way that the ones I have could be converted to DVDs. I understand that if we have permission from the supplier, it can be converted...could we have your permission and/or could you provide a copy for us? I am willing to pay whatever....I know all of our residents...all senior citizens...will get a lot of enjoyment...not to mention mental challenge (very needed for senior citizens) IF I can get DVDs...all three editions.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
Oh...in answer to the next question....I am 76 years old...our average age of the residents here 85 years old!

This game is not compatable with Windows XP, even with an updated version of Windows. When installing error message appears saying it's not compatible with Windows XP. Amazon.com won't refund money. Other Millionnaire games are the same way. They cannot be played on Windows XP.

A very disapointed customer

This is the second time I have had to return this game as it apparently is not compatible with Microsoft XP. Every time I tried to download 1st and 2nd edition, I got the message that Direct Show was not available. I got in touch with the manufacturer and they were not able to help me very much. After many unsucessful attempts to download, I returned the game to Amazon. com. It should be made clear to any buyers that there is a problem with this game if you have XP. Just an additional note, the 3rd edition is able to be downloaded.

GAME IS COMPADABLE
