In case anyone is interested: I have been able to get the venerable game
"Jet Fighter IV" to run on my Vista Home Premium. A few subtleties for
Vista, but it works for me. It was always a fun game (a little dated,
but....). My source was my old CDROM with the game in its Global Star jewel
case. I got some help from these guys:
