5.0 out of 5 stars Corrected item information
I bought this for my child and this is what the computer requirements say:

Windows 95, 98 Me, XP or Macintosh System 7.1 (or later).

The person who created this product listing did not list all the possibilities (nor did I).

1.0 out of 5 stars Who uses Windows 3 ('95, '98) anymore!?
Caveat emptor!
If you own a computer purchased or updated during the last 10 years, this software probably won't work on it.
.
Hardly noted, is the designation for Windows 3 software. Since most computers now operate XP (much less Vista), this software won't work. Sorry I wasted $22 . . . Hopefully you won't.

1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money :-/, March 3, 2008
This review is from: SchoolHouse Rock! 1st & 2nd Grade Deluxe (CD-ROM)
Sorry I missed the other review. Please unless you are running a windows 95 or 98 ..... yes I said 95 or 98 don't waste your time, this program only works on those two systems. Shame on all who are selling out dated programs.

1.0 out of 5 stars About previous compatibility reviews, May 21, 2008
This review is from: SchoolHouse Rock! 1st & 2nd Grade Deluxe (CD-ROM)
These are the spec on this software:

Publisher: Learning Company

Windows Requirements
Windows 98/Me or XP
486/66MHz processor or faster
8MB of RAM
17MB free hard disk space
Double-speed CD-ROM drive or faster
256 colors (640x 480) monitor

My Question is: Did you try running the software under compatibility modes in XP?

You can do this by right clicking the shortcut, going to proporites, and then selecting the compatibility tab, click run this program in compatibility mode for: Select Windows 98

3.0 out of 5 stars Outdated, March 8, 2011

This review is from: SchoolHouse Rock! 1st & 2nd Grade Deluxe (CD-ROM)
I'm sure it's a great little program but unfortunately it's outdated software as it will not load or install properly on currently common windows operating systems (XP, Vista, 7). It's a shame because it has a great price and is Schoolhouse Rock which was always fun as I recall and I had wanted to introduce my kids to it.
