Long time no see all!
Been trying to get back into ROTR on my new PC and I am in a bit of a trouble. I have C&C The First Decade, every time I finish the disk install EReg stops working. I leave that go, but everything else is installed. I launch Zero Hour to check, and now it says I need to insert the correct CD. The CD is still inside my PC. Will give any computer based information on request. Thanks in advance all! -------------------- Steam powered vehicles restricted to railways are love.

Windows 7 and beyond actualy since of last year got updated to remove the old security software necessary for these older CD check kind of games.
The only way to make it work right now is getting a CD-Crack for the game. Since you have mentioned you're running the first decade you could try the community patch (which incorporates a no cd fix): http://www.cncnz.com/hosted-projects/comma...official-patch/ --------------------  |

Well, I got Zero Hour working in probably the most annoying way for me.
I've had to change my actual monitor resolution down to fit the game and it works perfectly. Is there anyway I can not have to do this and still run the game? On the otherhand, thanks for helping me out guys! -------------------- Steam powered vehicles restricted to railways are love.
