And the latest patches are?
For the moment I have 1.001 for yuri and 1.006 for RA2 (I think).
Re-install won't help. If you skirmish the game works perfectly. so I don't think it's the install that didn't work.
Perhaps in installing a recent version of westwood online?

Found the explanation on ea support. (sometimes it helps to read the FAQ ).
You have to make a shortcut, then in properties change the compatibility to windows 98/win2k.
Hope it helps. For me it did. :wink:
