14th February 2010, 01:55 PM #11 well the old c&c dont run on x64 vista as it needs some 16bit thing for the installer

Keep getting an error with I guess Win API call and have set all exe's to Win95 compat mode.
Any ideas?
I used to love playing this on WW chat, wasn't very good at ranked though.
Cheers

14th February 2010, 06:56 PM #15 Try using the setup manager for Red Alert 1 (0.9.8)
Red Alert: Archive - The best place for all your Red Alert needs.
Used it this afternoon, worked a treat.
For multiplayer, add IPX protocal to your network connection.
Right away sir! For king and country!
