Hey all,
I recently found one of my favourite games from my childhood (operation: inner space, if anyone's interested) and downloaded it, however when i try to run the INSTALL.exe, I get the error message:
The version of the file is not compatible with the version of windows you're running.
I've tried all the different compatibility modes in properties but I always get the same message, so apparently they don't help.
I have heard that Microsoft have made a special Windows XP Mode and a virtual PC program which should help, but they are only available to win7 professional, enterprise and ultimate which is nice.
After a bit of searching I've tried running it in DOSbox, no joy, a couple of virtual machines but I don't really understand that, plus installing the whole of windows XP sounds like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut to me.
Does anyone have a solution for me?
