Old windows game name please?

I can't remember the name of this old game. It has a little yellow sun in the center and 2 ships which can fire rockets that orbit with the sun's gravity. Was a multiplayer game where people shared a keyboard. You could run through the edges and end up on the opposite side and you would try to hit the other player with a rocket and not crash into the sun. Any ideas on what it is?   Undecided

If you're talking about an old Arcade game with vector graphics, you're thinking of Space War (some call it "Space Wars" but that is incorrect).

Here are a few pictures:

Well, whatever it is, Space War was its inspiration.

Check the Space War Wikipedia article. It might have some later versions (including your computer game) in it.
