- Don't Purchase Gizmos and Gadgets
I loaded this software on 4 different computers and it would not run. I believe it is because it a very old software and will not run on XP but I'm not sure.

In past years this has been a very reliable company (Broderbund) but if they are not going to support the software they should not be selling it.

- WinXP can play Gizmos & Gadgets
This has to be one of the hardest Win95 games to get to work under WinXP.
I did it on two different systems and had an extra twist on the second system.

First, I have not been able to get it to work running the ssgwin32.exe in the installed \Tclwin\ssgwincd directory.

Put the CD in the drive and find the ssgwincd.exe in the ssgwincd directory.
Right click on this file and select Properties and then the Compatibility tab. At a minimum, check the "Run in 256 colors" and "Run in 640x480 screen resolution" and select OK. I would go ahead and select "Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 95" for good measure, but at least one of my tests seemed to indicate this is not absolutely necessary.

Now you are ready to try and run this executable. ... Read More

- Gizmos & Gadgets will not run on Win XP
Gizmos & Gadgets is a great game but I found it will not run on Windows XP due to the lack of MIDI functionality in XP. I have not been able to find a work around for this issue

First of all it is for ages around 8-14 I would say. It is really nice and I play it every time I get a chance too! It makes learing so much fun and I think they should make more as one for xp also. It is so much fun I suggest you buy it today!
P.S. the music is nice too!
