Issues unresolved

Game cannot run on Windows XP

Although the game installs on Windows XP, it cannot run on it. Without Windows Compatibility Mode, the game will crash on launch. With the proper settings (such as setting to Windows 95 mode and enabling "Run in 256 colors"), the game will launch, but it not detect QuickTime 3.0 installed (whether or not it is installed) and will automatically quit after an error prompt.
