Installing I-76 - HELP!

[QueBert]

Now I know I-76 is oooold, and Win 7 is beta. I saw a few people saying they had it running on Vista 64 so my hopes are I can figure out how. I Googled and didn't find anything that helped me. When I run setup I get "The version of the file is not compatible wqith the version of Windows you're running" I have tried compatiblility mode win 95, no dice. I have the original CD's + the Nitro pack. I'm seriously thinking about installing 98 on a 2nd partition just so I can play this game again if I'm unable to get it working in Windows 7.

I know somebody here has to have played it in Viata 64 and can help me.

it's not a DOS game though, it was Windows 95.

good fucking luck. its a pain in the ass to get that game to work right on any system. even on win98. I wouldnt even bother with anything above 98.

I remember this game had a bangin soundtrack and an annoying mechanic character named Skeeter.

Lol, while probably not a popular thing to say I've never played either game in that series.


Even though I have both of them on the shelf in the original boxes.

Sweet! I remember that game. It was like Mechwarrior 2 in cars, with 70s funk music. Good Luck!

Best part was the game CD worked as an audio CD.
