In reply to bill. Same here. The game starts fine but as soon as I want to load into a mission it asks for a cd and doesn't let me continue. Any ideas?

1) I have a quick question here,
I Got this game running on my Lenovo ThinkpadN22 Windows 10 System but the Resolution stops at 1024 x 768.
Could someone help me (up) the resolution in this game,
My Lenovo Goes up to 1366 x 768.

2) Also could some help me on Maps.
This game stopped on a page that said Maps, it was blank.
Could someone help me get the Map Files ?

One thing that may be an issue is, Windows 11 may make it more difficult to run. A lot of these games seem to run and just fine on Windows 7 and 10 with the instructions provided. So if you currently have windows 11 and are struggling too much of getting it to run, the only alternative solution I suggest at this time is install Virtualbox and run a windows 10 Virtual machine to run it that way. Just make sure you at least have 16 GB of RAM so you can delegate 8 GB of RAM to the virtual machine.
(If you don’t know how to do this, google search, but you will need a windows 10 ISO file).

In reply to Kneon Knight. Probably didn’t run the game as Administrator

I personally did not have the NO CD issue, and I am not sure what’s causing that problem because I never had that.
I can only assume You may want to try and use 3rd party software to Create an ISO file with all the files in it, (uninstall the 3rd party software afterwards) and then mount it through Windows 10 which comes with the Mounting ISO function in it.
That big error list I’m seeing below in the comments is because Said individual “did not run the game as Administrator” which makes the game fail to load upon running it. (That’s a Major step guys….)
Another thing that is a must for old games to work is, make sure you install Legacy Components, It’s done through the Control Panel / Programs & Features.
(Google search how to do this, I’m not that explaining it all here)

This game wasn’t hard to get running at all. You guys may also want to check the health of your system by scanning for viruses and the integrity of your system files. Malware in general, can cause alot of things to not run properly in your computer. I got it to run with no issues on my Laptop AND my desktop.
