Thanks for the link. Never really been into the game, but it's worth the download just in case I decide to get into it.

Two seperate campaigns, actually. You can't get the entire game story without both discs.

burn the ISO

-To install the software, you will need Winzip or Winrar to unrar the files. These files have also been compiled in to an ISO image. You will need to burn the ISO to a CD for the software to function or use a Virtual CD program to run the installation on your computer.

Last I remember Red Alert didn't like XP when I tried to install it.

MetalHead324 · Post by **MetalHead324** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:18 pm

yeah it just says to right click and use compatibility mode.

Use Daemon Tools Lite from filehippo.com to play it without the actual install cd. If I remember correctly, you'll have to use the, "mount image" feature for it to work.

i know but i cant find the freakin image

some one walk me through it lol

SteelersFANinMA · Post by **SteelersFANinMA** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:28 pm

The image would be the .iso file, if that's what you mean. I haven't finished dl'ing it yet, so I'm not sure what's in the .rar.

ISO should be in the soviet/allied disc folder within the rar.

MetalHead324 · Post by **MetalHead324** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:35 pm

Then if you aren't blind you have to be mistaking it for another rar file.

MetalHead324 · Post by **MetalHead324** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:45 pm

can you like go in the folder thing and take a screenshot of where the freakin iso is please...

Humboldt · Post by **Humboldt** » Mon Sep 01, 2008 1:46 pm

I just looked in both rar files and they both have an iso file.

Where are you looking?

An ISO is a specific file (blahblah.iso) not a directory or folder.

Most burning software has a function of writing an iso file to disc:

You can't execute the files until you do this (or use a virtual drive).
