    Hi guys,

    Anyone know how to get the old Beast Wars PC game working on a vista machine?

    I've tried all the usual compatability things but I can't get it working.

    Any thoughts?

    if it absolutely refuses, buy the PS1 version of that horrible thing and run it on a PS1 emulator.

    That reminds me... I have a copy of that game that I've never played. Now that my computer has Vista and I know it causes issues, I may never play it. Oh well.

    You guys saying its a horrible game, for shame!
    Sure it hasnt aged well, and it has very little Transformers related content, but I still played that game through to completion multiple times for both sides back when it was released.

    My friend and I would switch out if the other died, and if you beat the level you stayed on.

    Good times.
