I am playing c&c the first decade and I knowticed that in red alert the orignial game has collor issues. I am playing on a Toshiba 2007 computer and it gets off collor. I don't know why but it just happens. Is there a way to fix this off collor problem? Also I am haveing problems with playing command and conquer tibirium sun. I cant seem to get into the game without a popup saying the DLL has been missing or broken. I also wonder how to skip the intro in command and conquer 1995. I don't know how to get through the intro. Does anyone know how to?

I downloaded the free command and conquer game, but am having trouble installing it to XP. I updated the install/setup properties for W95 as the instructions noted, but when I run them it tells me it can't find all the necessary files. It doesn't tell me which ones are missing. It tells me to install from the CD. I downloaded to my hard drive. Any suggestions? I hope I can get this working. This my favorite game of all time and I lost my original copy in a move.

The only game in that compilation I had problems with was Tiberium Sun. It kept crashing randomly. I was unable to finish the campaign as I wanted to.

Try running red alert in some sort of compatibility mode by finding it in its directory in C: drive. It is an old game and compatibility issues are often encountered with games like that, tinker around with settings and google is also handy :)

And the DLL issue can usually be fixed by re-installing it or repair installing it, I know this because I've had The First Decade for a long time now and have installed it numerous times, but yeah good luck.

Will it fix the DLL problems and the Fatal string error problem?
