    Hello,

    I was going through my closet and found this old game and I really wanted to play. So I booted up my computer, double click AUTORUN.EXE, and click install. But nothing happened. I've Google'd solutions, but either nothing helped, or the forum wasn't active anymore.

    I'm using Windows 7.

    Please help,

    Thanks in advance.

    Find the setup.exe file and try running it in compatibility mode for windows XP (or 98).

    the setup.exe file is that going to be located in the CD Rom when you want to install the game?
