The seller proposed that I try reconfiguring my computer, and advised that I had done everything all wrong by trying the settings suggested in the Windows Compatibilty Wizard. Ah well, I don't see my way clear to re-doing my whole computer just on account of one game. I must say, I'm disappointed after reading all the great reviews of this program. Not sure I'll even be able to get my money ... Read More Rating:  - typing instructor for kids wonderfulKids, adults, it's fun and they love to do it. It took a little time for me to figure out how it works but with the children's help we mastered it. In one summer it turned 4 children into wonderful typists. |
