Windows 2000 Works On this Computer?

[pichorra]

Hi, I have Updated My Old PC RAM to 256. Well, i'm Asking Sometigs for Yours:

 

The Windows 2000 Will Work on this computer:

 

-256 RAM

-2 HardDrives (Quantium Fireball 3gb (i have intalled Windows 98) and one Sansung 10Gb Wilt programs and games installed.

-Crypx Processor

-Trio64+ Video Cartige.

 

Well, If i Update to Windows 2000:

 

-CnCNet will work? it not work on windows 98.

-C&C v1.06b Will Work? They apresent some incompatibilites on windows 98

In Win2000, I think you have to manually install compatibility mode for C&C to work. As for 1.06b and Win98, I think the only thing that doesn't work is the patch program. If you apply the patch manually (install on a different PC and copy the files) there should be no problem.

 

You'll need to delete logo.vqa, logo.vqp and version.txt though.

[pichorra]

Not, the incompatibility isn't is, the incomplatibilite is the game who start only showning green lines, Well, IDK, you need run on win98 to see.

and... agan, CnCNet ll work?

[Nyerguds]

no, cncnet needs the .net framework. I don't know if that even exists on Win2000.

 

Really, why are you running C&C on an archaic operating system? The patch is meant to make it work on XP, and it suceeds in that too.

Microsoft .NET 2.0 can be installed on windows 98, i have installed that. installed cncnet, it runned, but it not show the icon, only show a process on CTRL+ALT+DEL. But, how CnCnet server is having problems to reconfigure, idk if it really works. but, if it works, C&C on windows 98 isn't compatible on TCP/IP Lan Fix, who i m forced to use the original dll, (IPX).

I think you need to install TCP/IP on Windows 98

[pichorra]

tcp/ip was been installed, the game says:

Thipx32.dll need to be rune on a recent windows.

The system upgrade can help you.

[Irony]

You need to use the new thipx32.dll because CnCNet relies on it.

 

The old one uses IPX and the new one uses UDP

 

CnCNet requires UDP

[pichorra]

hmmm..., and about the Scorpio TCP\IP LAN 1.0.0.0

Someone have it? if yes, can upload to me?

i ll test later.

There is only one UDP patch for C&C1/RA :/

- I have downloaded the OLD TCP\IP DLL, yes, it works on windows 98, and, it need a program to connect ones than others (like Hamachi, but using TCP\IP) by port 5000, i think, if i change the CnCNet Communication port, (8054 to 5000) i think it will work, but, i think the chances of this work is 20 of 100, but, i ll test.   - DOSENT WORK

i have goted a dll who it is compatible of the Windows 98 and is compatible with the Scorpio's TCP\IP fix.
