Re: need help with ISO download
Use trial WinRAR (http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar510.exe) to open first part (MSWDOF.part01.rar) and unpack it (rest parts will unpack automaticly).
Use free Deamon Tools Lite 4 (http://www.daemon-tools.cc/pol/products/dtLite) to mount unpacked ISO in virtual CD drive.

Re: need help with ISO download
World of Flight is a Win95 title likely unrunnable on today's OS, so you're going to need a more oldies-friendly configuration: either an older computer with a 95/98/XP system installed, or a virtual machine.
Do you know how to go through one of the aforementioned methods ?

Re: need help with ISO download
(topic moved to Games Support)
I let you watch this video explaining how to install Win95 (CD version) in VirtualBox. You need to download VirtualBox, a bootdisk and an ISO of Win95 (unless you already have a CD).
When the machine is fully configured, you have to go back to the VM's settings --> Storage and put MSWDOF.iso in the virtual drive. Then you should be able to install the game inside the VM.
Ask here if you need further details or if you come across a problem.

Re: need help with ISO download
When you restart the VM after creating the partition with FDISK, you see this message:
MSCDEX Version 2.25
Copyright [blabla MS legal stuff]
Drive R:
The drive letter in the Copy command needs to coincide with the letter displayed in the message (eg: if the message displays "Drive F", then you need to write Copy F:\Win95 C:\Win95).

Re: need help with ISO download
That's not going to work. You need a CD-ROM image of Windows 95, not the bootdisk. I'd help out here if I could, but I've only got the floppy disk images of Windows 95a and Windows 95b.

Re: need help with ISO download
I downloaded Microsoft Windows 95 VMWare VM and extracted the folder using Winrar. In the folder there are five windows 95 files, which are .nvram, .vmdk, .vmsd, .vmx, .vmxf so I don't know what to do with this. I also downloaded Microsoft Windows 95 (4.00.950) [English w. Vietnamese Support] which has two files which are a .iso and a text file. Out of the two downloads which one is the right one and what do I do next.

Re: need help with ISO download
Use the ISO and follow Molitor's instructions:

For the VMware VM you'll need VMware Workstation:
