I wish I'd kept my 286. 🙁 Oldest PC I have now is a P166 laptop. Think I have to upload a pic of the mobo so you guys can tell me if it's crap It's crap. 😉 I think SIMM memory goes in SIMM sockets.

Nope, definetly runs on a 286. Remember going up to the BX and seeing it run on the latest 386's....."aquiring" a copy from school and installing it on the school's 286's and my home 286-12mhz.

Can someone explain what the 2000/XP patch does? Is it for an earlier version of the game? I've installed the Alpha Centauri Demo and Full games on NT4/2000/XP (32 and 64bit)/2003 (32 and 64bit)/Vista (32 and 64bit) and never encountered any issues.....
