Yuri's Revenge CnCnet does not launch

[HasibImam123]

I keep clicking on the icon of Yuri's Revenge CnCnet but it doesn't launch. I have .Net Framework working, there is no error popping up. And it just not launching. What do I do?

I had the same problem on a windows 7 machine. I have the disc version of yuri installed and I installed the client. It would launch but not actually open but show up in task manager. I then installed it on a second laptop that has windows 7 ult sp1 and it actually worked and it told me to install Microsoft XNA framework. It never asked me that on the first machine.

I then copied the entire ra2 folder to the other machine and it ran after i installed xna framework.

So if you still have an issue try installing XNA framework from MS and see if that gets it to run. If you can get it running on a second machine try to copy the entire ra2 folder to the machine that is not working and it might work as it did for me.

Honestly i don't know why a client needs such modern features to run a 20 year old game. The fact that you need all the frameworks is really discouraging if you want to run a 20 year old game on windows xp where it runs the best. If you run the client on a dual core machine it uses >40% of the cpu. And that's just the CNCnet client, not even the actual game.
