Hey guys Here is the ultimate work around for c&c red alert 2 After three days of google trying all methods on many forums and all failing I have quite by 50% accident and 50% experience with old games work around etc I have fixed the install issue I have been having Here's the issue Put cd in First screen loads with warning military software detected etc etc click install (Setup exe comes up in processes in task manager then stops with no crash notification) Got the same with all standard and software changing technique I found So here is what I did Apparently the issue is with security on windows stopping the auto run setup exe ( so I read) So going off past Exp of getting old games like settlers 3, populous the beginning, evil genius etc running on windows 7 ( these games were installed into a folder I named games in the file location c:games location may not be correct but that's the general place, no sub folders, just plonked there which stops the security issues program files x86 or x68 preventing old games to run) Now what I did was go to my computer and copied the whole allied game disk into a folder on my desk top then executed the auto run from the folder and hey presto the install screen popped up and it installed the game "from the disk" (I assume as the disk drive was running through the installation) So there we have it my issue could have been sorted just by simply copying the whole game disk into a folder and running from there Hope this helps a lot of guys out having the issue I have had Bernie Ps I'm no computer expert I'm just a google searcher and if that fails I'll try something so stupidly simple and it usually works Maybe some genius in my acts of let's try something so stupid it would never work ideas
