Seems to be working fine.
I installed the VMware tools, the game launched but had no sound so and had to manually find the sound-card driver, just grabbed the Sound Blaster drivers for Win98.
Also I installed the "Software" version of Titanium, not "Hardware", as I did not think VMware can emulate 3dFX hardware.

When I use MechVM, the game is able to play the intro screen. However, when I attempt to start a mission, the game freezes. To make it worse, pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del does not exit the game. It freezes up the whole OS! So the only option for me is to manually switch off my PC.

Anyone else using Windows 8.1 64-bit Professional edition and are having this problem? Please advise! I really love this game!

Any comments would be appreciated.

I had this same problem with MechVM. Because it does not work on Windows 8, you may have to run it in Dosbox.
