Well, since you have Vista, I don't think there's much you can to to run Chex Quest in its original version, unless you could get it running through DOSBox.

I recommend downloading The Ultimate Chex Quest instead.

Welcome to the forums!

It's impossible to run a playable, original Chex Quest natively in any Windows newer than 98.  You have to download a program called DOSBox.  Unfortunately, it isn't something I would consider simple.  Boingo the Clown (a member here) is making an improved version of Chex Quest that runs perfect in XP/Vista.

No one's going to hate you because you ask questions.

Anyway, are you still running the SciFience version? If you are, nobody knows why, but you cannot reach the fifth level (The Caverns of Bazoik.)
