How Can I Play Star Trek Borg the Video Game in Windows Vista?
Star Trek: Borg was developed and released by Simon and Schuster for personal computers running Windows 95. The game puts you in the shoes of a Starfleet Candidate who is given the opportunity to go back in time and rescue his father--from a ruthless alien threat known as "Borg." While Windows Vista users might be confused about playing a much older game on their computers, it is still possible to play the game by using the Windows Vista "Compatibility Mode" option.
