Cygnus X-1 12 Posted March 31, 2005 Install it in compatability for Win98 Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted March 31, 2005 I suppose u mean to right click on the setup icon and set compatibility, but I already tried it. Any other hint? Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted April 1, 2005 I tried to install it on a friend's comp where wasnt installed SP2, but the same thing... Share this post Link to post
Cygnus X-1 12 Posted April 2, 2005 Make sure you are installing the RA95 version, not the MS-DOS version. Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted April 3, 2005 That's the problem, i have the ms/dos setup. Where i can find that other setup? Or perhaps, if someone have it, please send it to my e-mail: [email protected]. Thanx!!! Share this post Link to post
Koen 2 Posted April 3, 2005 What game are we talking about here? Tiberian Sun does *not* have a MS/DOS version. I'm not sure why Cygnus brings up RA95.exe because that file is only found in Red Alert. Or are you talking about Tiberian Dawn (C&C part 1) which does have a DOS version? If so, you could try to use DosBox. Find a guide & more info on DosBox here: http://www.abandonia.com/main.php?nav=programs Share this post Link to post
Cygnus X-1 12 Posted April 4, 2005 i wouldnt use the DOS Box. It did some weird stuff for me, in addition to locking my comp up. Know of any other good DOS emulators? I want to play Yoda Stories and Tie Fighter again. Share this post Link to post
Luk3us 63 Posted April 4, 2005 I just use my old 98 computer... See there is still a use for old technology.. Share this post Link to post
Anthony69181 0 Posted April 4, 2005 Tiberian sun is possible to install in xp i run xp pro and have it installed yup you need to set compatability for it under 98 like you do for RA1 with aftermath (compatability mode for RA1 then install expansion normal under xp Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted April 4, 2005 Helooo, the compatibility does not work. I have tried with every version of windows but it sill doesn't work. I will try that DOSbox, but in any case, if someone has tiberian sun, please e-mail me your setup.exe on the previously mentioned e-mail adress. Share this post Link to post
chickendippers 1 Posted April 4, 2005 Tiberian Sun does not run in DOS. It seems that TibSun does have problems running on 64-bit systems though, what are your system specs? Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted April 5, 2005 2500+xp mobility, radeon 9000 mobility, 512DDR, 40GB hdd, windows Xp prefessional SP2. Share this post Link to post
Cygnus X-1 12 Posted April 5, 2005 Mines worse than that, and TS works like it was made yesterday. Share this post Link to post
GeneralZ 0 Posted April 6, 2005 My specs are way better than that.. and it still can't run TS. XP just doesn't like TS. I use my ME computer to play TS, it runs fine on that Share this post Link to post
Neuromncer123 0 Posted April 6, 2005 I have compiled the Ts game from the demo, just by adding some files from the cd and i can play it, at least with GDI. But i havent used the setup so i havent the registry files which are required to install TS: Firestorm. You folks that have a working tiberian sun, please send me the file setup.exe (not the whole cd) which is located in the root of the cd, to the mail adress [email protected]. Thank you!

Cygnus X-1 12 Posted April 7, 2005 My specs are way better than that.. and it still can't run TS. XP just doesn't like TS. I use my ME computer to play TS, it runs fine on that you can run it in compatability on you XP machine. Share this post Link to post
GeneralZ 0 Posted April 7, 2005 compatibility doesn't work for mine. I tried. The game loads, the screen turns black, and it fails to load. I have to press CtrlAltDelete and click on TS end program to close it Share this post Link to post
Cygnus X-1 12 Posted April 8, 2005 If compatabiliy isnt working, tell Microsoft. And look in their costomer support area for help on fixing this compatability not working issue. Share this post Link to post
