Did MESS do anything?
I mean, did you get a screen that looks like an old computer booting up?
Did it try to load your disk image?
Did you make your own disk image from your floppy disk that you
purchased? It may be copy protected or corrupt.
You can find an image that is known to work with flopper (and should
therefor work with MESS) here:

I only have XP at work, and I probably shouldn't be playing games here!
;)
I'll try MESS with the image from the above link on my win2k machine at
home when I get a chance in the next couple days.

Morning Jeff,
It still did not work. I wish it did.
I bought BigTop on the 14th and still can not play the game.
I read and followed commands and read and downloaded stuff and read and
... uh with no luck!
Jeff, do you have win xp? Will you be willing to try the game for me on
your PC?
May be there's something I'm missing that an expert can only find.
Or if not, do you know somebody who has win XP who will be willing to
load the game on their PC.
Warning! The game is highly addictive! Jeff, I can't thank you enough
for your time.
-Joe.
