It seems that I can't install IPX protocol at win2000 or winXP
In win98 I go to Control Panel ---> Network
But in 2000 & XP there is not that option
When I click Network in the game, it just refreshes the screen
Any help ?

You need to install an update to get the original Red Alert to work in
Windows 2000 or XP.

See my complete article to getting the classics to work in Windows XP at

Go to Start / Settings / Control Panel / Network and Dial-Up Connections.
Right-click on the Local Area Connection icon and click Properties. Click
the Install button, Protocol and select the IPX protocol from the list.
Click OK.
