The game seems to run fine but not the video "The Making of Myst." The video shows as a blank screen. However if I press alt-tab (as in going to another application), the video shows on the background. Of course, it is useless since alt-tab puts a window right on top the picture. I have a Zenith 486/25X with a VGA monitor, a TIGA card, a SCSI CD-ROM drive, and a Media Vision sound card. Richard -- Richard G. Ramirez, Ph. D. Assistant Professor of MIS Iowa State University
