630388	2008-01-15 04:37:00	Having difficulty installing 'Command & Conquer' (on dec-jan dvd). Have been able to unzip and burn to cd, compatibilty set to 95 as instructed. However when trying to install using install.exe - it goes through initial setup graphic then- 'Unable to locate necessary file please run setup.exe from the cd rom disc' On exploring disc cannot find setup.exe (havesetup.dll ,(underline)setup, setup) Tried using autoplay - starts off as if installing then crashes. Same deal with NOD or GDI. Operating system XP media. In future, if games are supplied as full & free, how about supplying them that way. Has anyone else had similar problems (have seen other C&C problems on this forum), or am I special? Thanks Jono:groan:	Jonom (12775)

Trying using the other iso file that you shouldve burnt onto another disk and that should work. Hope this helps	nzjab06 (101)
