Hey. Just wondering if anyone could help. I've recently formatted and
re-installed XP and Generals now refuses to work. The menu screen pops up
and the loading screen, then just disappears...any ideas?
My CD drive's on the blink so I'm using a virtual cd/image program called
Alcohol and a Generals disk image created on my other pc. This was working
fine before my reinstall...
