Given the comments I wasn’t expecting much, but surprisingly this made an excellent addition to my “nostalgia” VM running Windows 10 x86. Game boots up immediately and runs without issue as long as the ISO is mounted. Thank you for the upload!

  For anyone looking at this in the future, I had the same issue and what fixed it for me was installing Quicktime

I can’t get Jump Start Typing to start on my computer. I can get it installed and get to the “start” panel, but once I actually click “Play,” it disappears. Help?
