Odd as it sounds I use an XP computer for a lot of my gaming. I have a modern computer of course, but tucked behind it is an XP tower with all the hardware I ever wanted back in my late teens and a 2TB HD with all of the games of the era I ever wanted to play lol

But for like 20 years IVAN has always been one I've my most played games. I even had an account here a decade+ ago, though that email is long gone lol but I though I'd put a copy of it on that computer, but 059 doesn't seem to work on XP. As much fun as I've had going back to some old variants (just did a deep run on CLIVAN) I would like to play the main game.

Any suggestions? Or is it not possible.

Thanks!

You could dual boot, or try to emulate a Linux environment, that is the only way I imagine you could get the Linux version running on XP.

I don't know much about emulating environments but it is not difficult to install Linux mint
