I would like to try Starcraft but see all the versions on ebay are for windows 95 or 98 or nt 4.0 and macintosh 7.6 or higher. I have Windows XP. Can anyone confirm or deny that one of those ebay versions will work for me? Thanks.

However, buying a copy off e-bay runs some risk that your key will be in use - rendering your purchase pointless. I wouldn't take the risk - just buy it at the store. Only original starcraft has a key - you don't have to worry about a key for broodwar. -- LTP :)

Yeah, I'd wager a new copy of the SC battlechest wouldn't run for more than 10-15 bucks at retail this point in time.

Hey don't worry. IT doesn't matter to work on your computer. Window XP is enough to play Starcraft.
