Old program question
« on: November 06, 2007, 08:00:50 PM »
I still have my original copy of red alert aftermath and counter strike. They are win 95 games and don't work on 98 or vista.

Does anyone have an idea about the patch to allow them to work?
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

Install red alert as follows:
open cd, setup95 folder, install.exe
set compatibility mode on install.exe to win98/me

Install Red Alert 1.08 patch:

Then set compatibility on RA95.exe as follows:

run in 640x480 screen resolution
