I've been running it under 1.3, and have it installed on my hard disk (on my 25Mhz, 4 MB RAM system). I tried it briefly under 2.0 and it did crash (froze up in a dogfight) after a while, so I've been running under 1.3 since then. The only weirdness I've seen is an occasionaly spurious flash of garbage across the screen during dogfights. Oh, I should mention that I haven't customized my 1.3 boot sequence at all, so it is running just like it came from the factory (no background programs). Maybe that's important. Also, I frequently exit the program to save/restore my pilot, so perhaps I just haven't played it long enough to have it crash (but I've certainly gone through 5-6 scenarios in a row without crashing...). I wouldn't have bought the game if I hadn't first seen it running on the A3000 at my dealers, so it isn't just me...
