Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator

There has been a lot of talk here of making old games playable on newer systems.
When it comes to old games it is Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator which was released on Halloween 1999 I have played it on every version of Windows from 95 to XP without any modification or tweaking of Windows. It runs on all single core processors from the 286 to what is current today. I have never tested it on a multi-core processors but I would almost believe it would work with those as well. The graphics compare remarkably well with games released years later. It does use Quick Time for most of the sound like music and character conversations and video sequences so that may have something to do with it. The Creators and their companies have long since disappeared but the game does exist for download.
There are several good Walkthroughs and videos on how to play it in various languages.
Here is a link to wikipedia that talks about the game http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septerra_Core
For some screen shots just google Septerra Core Screen Shots.
If you can find it try it and let me know if it works on your system. If you already own it try it on your current system and see if it works, I would like to know.
