'''Description:''' LEGO Island was written around a very old version of DirectDraw, including a [[Direct3D Retained Mode|retained mode API]] (D3DRM) that is not only unsupported now, it's also been dropped from Windows/DirectX entirely. Many of its DirectDraw function calls are obsolete, deprecated and/or completely abandoned now.

Many of its DirectDraw function calls are obsolete, deprecated and/or completely abandoned now. There is one specific case, on some XP computers (around the time of Vista-compatible stickers) AUTORUN.EXE, and ISLE.EXE are shown as non-compatible Win32 applications, and will refuse to run (has not been tested with Rebuilder, that might fix it).
