On the original it would do that...do that..do that..do that..l.. :LOOP in sound crash. It would also just crash sometimes.

Patch your RA1 with http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/

I appreciate your help.

Tore actually already pointed me to http://funkyfr3sh.cncnet.org/

It was that site I referred to as the "separate program"

 

I have already tried that.

Well somthing dosn't make since. Did you use any compat settings?

[FunkyFr3sh]

What version number does it show in the main menu?

 

If you have patched the game properly then it will generate a error log file now, check your game folder for ra95crash.dmp and upload the file here

Here's what worked for me. 

 

1.  Find the game install folder.  For First Decade, it should be something like:

        C:\Program Files\EA Games\Command & Conquer The First Decade\Command & Conquer Red Alert

2.  Search for string *.exe

3.  For every .exe file found in the folder, individually -

          a.  Right click and select properties

          b.  On the Compatibility tab -

                    i.  Set for Windows 98 / ME

                    ii.  Select Run as administrator

 

After I did this for every .exe file in the folder, the game seems substantially more stable
