total annihiliation

eydihtt · 06-29-2005, 03:21 PM

hi guys, it's Lord O.C.Obo here, I'm sitting at my gf pc for the moment, it seems she has total annihiliation lying around here for years but she never bothered to install it, but now it won't play because she's using windows XP and on the cd-rom it says windows 95, is there something I can do about this? it does an autorun when I insert the cd-rom and I get a screen where I should be able to click either play or exit, but the play button is blacked out.

I managed to install Red Alert on my pc not so long ago, and that's windows 95 only too normally, so can anyone help me? thanks, i'll check back in about an hour.

edit: admins and mods, don't delete this account or ban it, I will not use this on my own pc, it's for my gf, so no worries okay?

Try going into its exe file and under properties tell it to run under 95 in the compatabily tab
