RGH!!!  Yuri's Revenge drives me insanse.
« on: April 16, 2006, 01:29:43 PM »
Okay, so I'm trying to run C&C: Yuri's Revenge, but I keep getting an error prompt as soon as the screen goes black to run the program.  Red Alert 2 works perfectly, but YR won't.  I can give you error prompt info and such, but I didn't know if it would have system info on it.  What irks me is that it worked on my old crappy Windows 98 computer, but won't on my XP one.  Any help you guys got would be gratefully accepted.

What are the system requirements, and what are your system specs? Are there any patches online available for you? Have you tried running the game in compatibility mode?

Ummmm.... compatibility mode?  How does that work?  I should meet the system requirements, because my old system ran it, and it was worse than this one.

Note that you can only use compatibility mode on a Windows XP computer... If you have Windows XP, see this link: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/apcompatmode.mspx ...

Yeah, I searched for it and figured out how to use it and got the game working.  Thank you very much for the help.
