Command and Conquer

Ah.. the best strategy game ever of it''s time

Have you tried running the MS-DOS version from the Command Prompt?

Sorry, it''s the win ''95 version of the software. It won''t run under DOS.

Thanks for the reply anyways.. anyone else have an idea?

buy red alert 2

red alert 2 is a discrace to the westwood C&C series.


Dolphins? I mean wtf, how gay is that.


anyways, I run it all the time, with compat mode on of course, and have no problems.

I use a win98 partition for those old games, actually, I just played C&C a few hours ago I still love it, mostly because it reminds me of da good old days I guess..

So you''re the guy who just came to my house and asked everyone inside if we were fans of C&C and how we stood on Red Alert. It all makes sense now.

yea, that''d be me

ktuluorion, I got exactly the same problem on my XP machine. Pity because I love C&C 1

Does anyone play the original Command and Conquer on their Win2k machines? I can''t seem to get it working, even with win95 compatibility mode turned on. Does anyone have any hints to getting it working? It crashes immediately upon hitting the link.

Thanks!

I had the same problem and I never got it working I even made a few posts about it in the lounge. Red Alert won''t work either. I loved those games.

And, to whoever said RA2 was a disgrace to the CNC series: Peh, the game wasn''t THAT bad, I admit it wasn''t the best like RA1 and CNC95 were, but it was still pretty good. If you are looking for a disgrace, then play Tiberian Sun. That game made me want to blow up my computer (just kidding, maybe my friends computer though).

Actually Dolphins are rather realistic. Several militaries around the world use them for seamine detection and search and rescue.

If you want to play DOS games, then I would recommend building a cheap system with older hardware to play DOS games. Hardware drivers are still readily available online for old hardware.

I got a little 486 with a Sound Blaster Pro and Matrox Millenium videocard set aside for dos gaming.

neither TS nor RA2 were disgraces. you''re all just n00blets.

It''s not a DOS game. It is Win ''95.

Well, then:

I know this probably doesn''t help you, but Win XP has a compatability mode, that is semi useful, I use it to play fallout 2 on the windows xp computer in my office, since i have nothing better to do, than to play games.
