i can setup it just by create a new Drive by FAT32 type to it can copy files there. and now i think Game does not work well. because in game:
i get some keys and then goes to open car's door but i cant open. is it that maybe my RAM is NTFS and that does not work??!!!!! or my path is wrong!!!?

Nah, NTFS or FAT32 doesn't matter to a game. (Also it's your hard drive that uses NTFS or FAT32...not your RAM 😉 ).

Right,
My path was wrong..
You will not need FAT32 Drive type, or anything, just
http://www.hopkinsfbi.com/zip/setupXP.exe
and dont forget in game that get mouse over on top left of screen for an icon.
so Thanks... Bye

i tried also the windows 95 and 98 compatibility right click on hopknins,exe but with no luck
