This game will not run under XP. This is on an old (P4 2.4GHz) desktop running a clean install of XP SP3, and the game will not start, even when all compatability settings tried. It just crashes as soon as it is started.

Awesome game. Purchased about 6 months ago and my 9yr old son and he loves it. It's easy to learn and yet is still challenging each time he plays. There is variety in the games and a fun objective of playing to earn credits to buy new ship parts and fly home. The rats' race game for eg; displays a card when working out maths problems so they can see and learn problem solving not just rely on mental maths skills. My 5yr old has been playing at times with him and she is really developing her adding skills. This is a great game for boys and girls. I am also using this with Windows XP and have never had a problem with loading or playing the disc.

I'm not a big fan of gaming consoles, so my kids (ages 13, 9 and 7) share an Windows XP system on which we run various educational games (Jumpstart, I Spy, etc.) Star Wars Math has been a fantastic game for them... they've played both individually or as a group, and it has worked flawlessly. For me its a "win-win", since they get a Star Wars themed game (a big deal these days) but is pretty educational as well. I can't believe this game is listed as unavailable! But no worries, it does work well under XP.

This will not run on Windows XP. If you have a newer computer, it will not work.
