I got this game to work on win 10. This is how: First of all you must be on a win user account that has Administrator privileges(control panel\user account\your account will show you your level of access. If you cant get there, your not an admin.) Get the ISO version with patch and cd key. If you dont have a program to mount iso files to a virtual drive, get WinCDEmu. Mount the ISO, right click, open, setup.exe. Install to a folder OUTSIDE C:\Program Files(for example, c:\MyFolder., create a folder on your c:\ drive named anything you want, then when the wizard gets to "install to", browse and navigate to said folder) I know that info is tedious, but there are beginners. Go to the patch, right click\Compatibility tab\run as administrator\apply, then run patch. Go to your install folder(one you created) right click on StarFleetOP.exe Compatibility tab\run this compat. w\ win98\Me check disable fullscreen optimizations and run as admin. Apply. If you want, right click\create shortcut and drag it to your desktop. Generally, that's it. Other tweaks for my machine that I did that may help are: Went to my Nvidia video panel and set all I could to performance instead of quality and all else I could to application controlled instead of video card control. I opened the SFCOPSetupMFC.exe and selected software from dropdown at the top, the OK. You will still get the Memory access violation crash once in a while, but the game is playable as long as you save often. As far as I can tell, its in the sound. The sound bytes tend to garble, skip and go out of bounds when spamming sound clicks, such as when your in the shipyard and clicking the up and down arrows quickly while scrolling through ships, or spamming the fire button Hot Key while the weapon is energizing. Too many sound bytes to quickly crashes the game.

Unfortunately I could only get it to install in XP without a corrupt message. I tried Win7 and Win10 and both failed to install. I suspect some of the install packaging still required some 16bit processes but that is only a guess. The ISO is not corrupt but rather outdated for Win7 and Win10.

You need to mount the ISO file in a virtual CDrom drive. There are free virtual drives available for download.

So many memories. I found this at a Schoolastic book fair while my mom was looking for supposedly educational books. I think we all know which was more important.
