i will be of little help here
here is the excerpt from Roger Wong's FAQ..it gives little info on music,
mentions it in passing in the last sentence...so i assume there are music
files to download....but being computer illiterate, i have no idea which
files they are:

*10-4* How can run C&C off my hard disk?
===========================================

If your CDROM device drivers take up too much memory to run a program such
as
Kali, or if you have a laptop that does not have a CDROM drive, you can play
C&C completely from your hard disk.

Running C&C off the HD:
     step 1: install C&C like normal
     step 2: copy all the files from the root directory of the CD-ROM into
             the directory you just installed C&C into.
     step 3: now copy the general.mix file from the other CD-ROM into this
             directory as well (rename the first one before doing this).
     step 4: before playing C&C, make sure you have the general.mix file
             representing which side you want to play (I use gdi.mix and
             nod.mix as the filenames and rename one to general.mix
             depending on which side I want to play).
** step 5: **
     Instead of typing C&C to start, type in C&C -cd<path> where path is the
full path to the C& directory. ie.- If you installed C&C to c:\games\c&c,
start the program by typing in:
     c&c -cdc:\games\c&c\
Notice that there is no space. Though the trailing backslash is optional for
DOS 6.xx users and below, Windows 95 users *must* include it.

You no longer have to have the CD-ROM loaded to play c&c. This takes up a
little under 30M if you omit the video and music files.

Fight Win Prevail
But Never Cheat

Hi,

thanks for the info.
I tried as suggested,
but when I start C&C with -cdc:\c&c a prompt comes up saying 'Unable to load
SCORES.MIX'.
When I remove SCORES.MIX the game starts,
but still without music.

My configuration:
DOS5
Celeron 333A
384MB RAM

Any ideas?

Regards,

Raymond

Hi,

another solution works.
I tried it with FakeCD/FakeDr.
Now I have the music, too;-)
Thanks again.

Raymond
