    Did you do the good ol' 95 Compatability?

    Right-click TS.exe (or whatever), properties, and change it so it's all Windows 95 compatable.

    It should work in win98 compatability mode too. Not like it matters which mode though. I just wanted to prove my geekyness to myself by grabbing the manual to look at the sys. reqs. which was sitting within arm's reach of my chair. <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Something wrong with the game? I spent a lot of time playing it a few years ago...

    Works fine on my machine. Install under comptability with 98 or 95, it should work.

    I agree completely. The story was nonsensical and half-arsed. I was looking forward to more of the excellent stuff delivered by the first game and didn't get it.

    Even so, it's a reasonably fun game. Not a patch on the original, but still.

    I don't remember C&C:TS much (Considering I haven't played it in years), but I don't think the gameplay was nearly as bad as you're putting it.

    I liked tiberium sun alot. I didnt like those stupid homing missles and things that would insta-pwn a structure every few minuites. RA2 was the best, with toggles on sw's and all the good stuff. A good mix of both on a modern RTS engine would be awesome.
