Does anyone know the hover game that used to come on Win95???
Hey,
I just got and old computer from my aunt that is running Win95. When I was younger, I remember playing a hover craft type game that came on Win95. Does anyone know what that game is or where I can get it? It was a cool game that you are in a hover craft type vehicle and you had to go around collecting flags and getting power ups and what not. If you know what this game is, please email me ASAP.
-Thanks

Ok, that didn't help much. I think I'll just email Microsoft. But anyone can feel free to post another answer. By the way, it's not a racing game. Your in a hover craft of some sort and you go around getting flags and power ups. Does anyone know of this game??? please help.
I remember playing this game...
I can't verify this as I lost my Win95 CD.
I remember I didn't install the game but found it on the CD. If you still have the CD you might want to try the following:
Put in the CD and autostart it.
There might already be a link to the game. If not, try the other links, like "Windows-Tour"...
Maybe you find it.
If not, look at the content of the CD with the Windows Explorer. Look for a 'goodies' directory or something like that. Maybe you find it there.
Sorry for the poor information.

Thanks for the help Tijoe. But, unfortunetly, I don't have the win95 disk. My aunt didn't give it to me with the computer. I called her and she no longer has it. So, does anyone know another way of getting it? Oh, and Tijoe, do you remember the name of the game? I think I can find the game on the net somewhere if I knew the name. Although, I don't like resorting to stealing the game, and I wont. Maybe if I supply microsoft with my serial number, they can supply me the game free of charge... hmmm. Any way, does anyone know the name of the game I describeed above?

Hello -
If anyone else needs the game - I have it in a Zip file. :)
FYI - It isn't necessary to have the CD in the 'puter in order to play the game. I just saved all of it into a folder on my desktop.

Hey Glitche1, I tried the link but it went into Microsoft Word when it finished downloading and didn't work.
Does anybody else have it? If so could you send it to me? I'm dying to get a hold of this game, i've been everywhere on Google.
