Actually, I experience very choppy game play on the old XP machine now that I've fully reformatted the hard drive and rebuilt it for the first time in >5 years. Either an XP update that eluded the old sprawling patchwork of an OS has crippled the game or I've forgotten some esoteric video tweak that was essential to performance.

The Vista machine has intermittent color issues as described by many others in full screen mode, plus the map is stretched to fit my widescreen aspect ratio. Looks horrible. But the windowed mode looks and works fine.

I also had this problem when has bought laptop with Vista.

I have started search in windows.
Searched for files " SpEml001.
Has found.
Has then made a label for this place where Vista stores Save.
Also did not begin to understand what here business.

Thank you, Epoletov. You are still the godfather. ;) That was the fix. Vista stores the save files in a different location. Got it.
