I used to play this game in the computer labs when I was in Middle School, but I just can't remember what it was called...it basically involved you getting a bunch of random items like flashlights, balloons, darts, cats etc. and then you had to solve some kind of puzzle with them. Each of the items had some kind of cause and effect relationship with each other

ex: you do something, which turns on the flashlight, which heats up the balloon, which causes it to pop, which in turn causes something else...

any way this is a screenshot of the game

The Incredible Machine rules! Where did you find a copy? I'm looking for one that would work on my poor decrepit machine, but it objects to everything installed on it.

No - it's officially known as the moment music 'jumped the shark'.
