I own a copy of this game I purchased back in 1997 and trying to get it to run on my new Windows 11 machine.

Any suggestions?

It says from the get go that the app is not compatible with Windows 11. I've tried the troubleshooter but nothing

Use otvdm, it's probably a 16-bit installer.

That seemed to work. Thanks now however the game runs way too fast.

Any ideas? There used to be a title called mo slow To slow the cycles down Back in the day but don't know if there's anything better.
