I'll do you one better:  on my machine (G4 running 10.3.9), trying to mount the curent disk image results in the computer hanging up almost completely for about 30 seconds and then coming up with an "operation timed out" error.  The MD5 sum is correct.

Can you verify the disk image with Disk Utility?  Does converting it to an uncompressed format help?

As an aside, there's an awful lot of Mac users around here lately.  I had no idea I had so much company!  Smiley

Disk Utility says it's fine.

While I was in there I tried pressing the "mount" button up at the top, and it worked.  Odd.

the game still doesn´t remember the settings
I use a  iMac G4 800Mhz 10.3.9
I can save and load but always when I start the game, I have to change the setup again.
And also, how can I turn on Full Screen ?

Nope, it won't.  Even says so in the manual.

By downloading this version.  But it won't remember your settings, either.  Later revisions won't be quite so braindead, but the code needs to be written first.
