C&C Red Alert under WinXP

by fra@[EMAIL PROTECTED] (RMF) Sep 17, 2004 at 04:29 AM

Hi all

I dug out this nearly 10 year old C&C CD, it is the Win 95 version in
German ("Teil 2: Alarmstufe Rot").

When I try to install it under WinXP prof., the Setup-Screen comes up
("... preparing the InstallShield Wizard ... Please Wait."), counts to
100%, and then a small window pops up with a "Setup initialization
error."

And that's it. :-(

Now, I've googled around and found in this group a couple of posts,
esp. the following article:

http://www.planetcnc.com/features/techtroopers/classicsInXP/

Unfortunately, try as I might, it doesn't help at all. I can run the
setup.exe from a shortcut set to Win95 compatibility mode, but I don't
get a toe further.

I have admin rights, and I don't intend on playing over a LAN or
Internet if that matters. Any help appreciated.
