You may not have a 'fix'.
When older games, such as the one you have, are played when booted into a 'classic' OS (OS 9 & below), the game software controls certain aspects of the computer hardware operation (like it resets colors to 256 & sometimes screen resolution to a lower value). However, when operating in classic while booted in OS X, these hardware operations are not automatically implemented, resulting in no or degraded play of the game software. You might experiment with setting the colors to 256 and/or screen resolution before you start up the game.
 Cheers, Tom

Strange that I can't seem to get this to run either. Similar to others, I run the Setup file, it pinwheels for a second - then nothing. I can run the Autorun file as well and at least get the the Jumpstart splash screen where I can also click 'Install', but still nothing afterwards..

I would play this game with my sister when I was 8

I remember paying this game hours on end as a five year old. I swear this game founded my love for science and math.

Sivos2020-09-284 points

To get this to work, extract the ISO's contents somewhere on your computer (I use PowerISO). Then right click Setup in the file folder, click on Properties, then Compatibility, and change the 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' to Windows 95. Also make sure 'Run this program as administrator' is checked off. It should work then.

Does anyone know where I can find this game in spanish?

Nickylegs2020-07-274 points

Hi everyone, I managed to get this to work. I tried a few different programs to run the image file but most didn't work for me. The software that did work was WinCDEmu. I downloaded it here: https://wincdemu.sysprogs.org/download/
The steps:
1. Download file
2. Unzip
3. Download image software (WinCDEmu)
4. Right click on disk image file and select 'Select drive letter & mount'
5. Go into the 'disk' to see the files
6. Right click on the Setup file and run as administrator
That just worked for me on my PC!
Good Luck!

Andy2020-07-070 point

Hi I want to know how you download the game on iOS cause I’m having a little bit difficultly to download it and please let me know if anyone knows how and what files to click on thanks

jazz2020-06-230 point

does this game have the mac version?

Ari2020-06-228 points

I played this for hours everyday when I was a kid. I hate to admit that was over 20 years ago, haha. I tried not to get my hopes up about it working on my Windows 10, but it did with no problem. Just clicked set up and it installed fine. Honestly, when the intro started, I had such a huge grin on my face and as I keep playing I remember so many parts that I thought I completely forgot. I never actually beat it as a kid, despite how long I played it, so now I finally have a chance to do it as an adult - decades later. Thank you so much!

Cant install math blaster 9_12 says computer not compatible on windows 10

Darius the Various2020-06-15-10 points

I got to play this when I was in 3rd grade myself, however, you would have to be in the special needs department to play it.

gramalaine2020-05-072 points

I had this game for my kids when they were young, and recently came across the old CD. We were able to play it from an external drive, although the drive had to work pretty hard, and it kept telling us that it wasn't optimized for the display. I want my young neighbour to be able to play, so I'm excited that it can be downloaded. I hope it works! This is still an amazing game - the graphics were so far ahead of their time!

KC2020-05-072 points

Love, love, love this game. So pleased to be able to play it again.
When I upped to level 3 in the observatory minigame (the one with the lasers and the data packets) a comet strike caused the game to crash, apparently irretrievably. When I try to launch it, I now have an error telling me to insert the disk while holding down the shift key. Curious as to whether anyone else has had the same issue.
I may just download it again and start over. Seriously love this game.

Candyman2020-05-04-2 points

Yeah, I downloaded the file. Extracted it. Clicked autorun.exe. Hit install. Hit yes to the dialogue box asking if I approve. Nothing happens after that?

NotARobot2020-05-022 points

Okay, so I decided to try again today after posting my last comment, and this time I was able to install the game. It seems like I had to update my computer first or something, so I'd say make sure your computer is completely up to date before you try installing the game.
Either way.. nice to see you again, Botley. It's been too long.

NotARobot2020-04-233 points

I can't seem to open up the game. It keeps saying 'Install' but nothing happens when I click on it even though I mounted the ISO file to my virtual driver. If anyone managed to get the game to work, please let me know what you did. I mostly need to know how to 'install' the game.
(I'm using WinCDEmu if that helps)

Rooster2020-04-230 point

I am CRYING because I have been wanting to play this game for AGES!!!! I never beat it as a child, and thanks to this amazing site I finally can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So many memories.. I swear these jumpstart games founded my education - I need to find all of them if anyone knows.. (also unlocked from my deep memories was JS kindergarten reading which I also found on here)
but THANK YOU THANK YOU to the people who brought this together - and it works 99% perfectly! (some visual glitches here and there) just followed ladyallen's directions!

jojo2020-04-200 point

JerryPH20202020-04-13-1 point

guys i managed to installed it by following this instructions once I've downloaded it. I didnt use any virtual drive etc. I simply see the nature of the file and search for it on how to open. look this youtube vid below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hu_URc7RNtA

Reba2020-04-11-3 points

Downloaded it worked then now it's telling me to insert disk why? Can anyone help?

SlowPoke2020-04-071 point

Great game, I got this for my son, because I have such fond memories of this game.
Easy to download, you will need an ISO drive, I like Virtual Clone Drive (FREE). Then you will mount the ISO (download) to the Clone Drive.

macy2020-03-240 point

I bought the cd-rom for this game but can't figure out how to install it? Nothing happens when I put the disk in. I have Windows 10.

highlady2020-03-121 point

So I do what LadyAllen said, and I click the AUTORUN.EXE and the start-up menu comes up, and I click 'Install', I allow it via the pop-up for the system admin to do this, and then it closes and nothing happens, nothing installs. Help!

LadyAllen2020-02-090 point

Works perfectly, thanks! For those wondering how to run this on a Windows 10 machine, you can use the .iso file by right-clicking scroll to Open With select Windows Explorer. This will mount the .iso to a virtual drive on your computer so you can run it like an old-school CD-ROM. Just navigate to the drive (in my case, it was the E drive) and click AUTORUN.exe to install the game and get started. Enjoy!

LOVED THIS GAME WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL

Geolicious2019-10-031 point

I did not expect to see this many comments in 2019! I remember learning the origins of gum from some game in my childhood, after 20 minutes of research I found it! I can't wait to play it again! But I can see there are some issues with the download. I'll let y'all know if I'm successful. I don't know which version of the game I played, but it was probably the 2001 one. I probably got this game in 2007 when I was 8 years old.

jorp2019-09-204 points

instead of saying you got the game to work, please say how you got it to work or don't say anything at all. thanks

Apoc2019-09-080 point

I'm having issues downloading this game and I would love to play. Can someone help me? I have a Dell

Jeff2019-08-150 point

@JDLMON3 I can confirm that this download is the 2001 version; the original 1996 version had more dialogue and different graphics. This one also contains online activities that I don't think were included in the original (I could be wrong about that one though).
If you were willing to upload your copy, I and others would greatly appreciate it.

jdlmon32019-08-030 point

TOUGHSUN14 I still have my original 1996 copy. What is the difference?

ToughSun142019-06-091 point

Okay, while this is a true copy of the game, one gripe I do have about it is it's not actually the version I remember. From what my research tells me, this is actually the 2001 version of the game, not the original 1996 version of the game. So, there's that. If someone could find a copy of the 1996 version, that would be appreciated.

botly fan2019-03-050 point

sebabstian2019-02-080 point
