Every time I launch the game it says "isle has stopped working." But when I was messing around with the backwards compatible I got a little bit further. When I switched it to Windows NT 4.0 it now starts say "LEGO Island is not detecting DirectX5 or later. Please quit all other applications and try again." I did that and it's still saying it. -- JJOR64

''The system specs for this game are extremely low - I doubt there are many PCs left in working order that wouldn't be able to run this game. (CPU: 233MHz PII, 4Mb graphics card, DirectX 7.0a, 150Mb HDD space, 32Mb RAM.) It officially works on Windows Me, 2000 and XP, though it works fine on Vista as long as you run it in XP compatibility mode'' the system specs needed are very low & its not optimized for vista...though this guy got it running i just think its too old ....sorry i could not suggest more :) -- skunksmash E2180 @ 3.2ghz arctic cooler pro 775 4GB gskill HZ @ 1050mhz Asus P5K premium 160GB seagate 7200 coloursit 600w psu PNY 8800GT 512mb
