The editors are obviously acting according to their words and after Ubisoft have loose some of its PC titles for free, here come the turn of Electronic Arts. The U.S. is actually getting benefits from the twelfth anniversary of the Command & Conquer series to get a little publicity and disseminate free "founding father" of the saga: Command & Conquer.

This is actually the Windows version of Title 95, the same which appears in the Command & Conquer The First Decade compilation , fortunately is has no problem of distribution since Command & Conquer is now available from various download servers. Note that to benefit fully, you must recover the disk images devoted to the GDI and NOD.

Electronic Arts also produces a small text file that details the procedures to install and play the game, with particular emphasis on the need to run the whole mode Windows 95 compatibility. i wish you a good download and good game!

hi,

im desparately trying to install and play the old red alert, but am having a few problems. i have searched and found several guides to follow, but i seem to get stuck at the same spot each time.

i downloaded the disc images and extracted them, and mounted them to a virtual disc app. then i go and change the compatibility to windows 95 mode, but when i try to run the setup.exe file, i get the following message:

"the version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running. check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher."

the installation guide i am following is available here:


(if you scroll down to RickRolled's post, i cannot get past step 3)

im running 64bit vista on my laptop

please help!

thank you
