Dude! I remember spending countless hours playing that game! Honestly I sort of miss it. Hovercraft 3D I think is what it was called?

I have same problem with Worms Armageddon and Diablo 2

the problem there is the explorer, if you close it via batch
something like

killtask "explorer.exe"
pause
start explorer.exe

you perhabs can get it run.

So I doing with many old games were textures are mixed uo
Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative

HIgh Res Texturepack ............43% done

There was a game that looked very similar to the 3d maze screen saver where you went around and shot at hovering tanks. I remember it being on almost all the win 95 demo computers that were set up in stores when I was a kid.

Edit:
And found the game in question! It was called Microsoft Hover.

I swear I had a playable version of the screensaver on the recovery disk that came with the os. I'll dig through my parents stuff next time I visit, they keep everything.
