Clicking on "setup" OR "Duke.exe" does nothing but give a message that game.con is missing. I'm guessing that what I actually need is to have the original game loaded, and then the port gets it to run in XP; but how do I manage that if I haven't got the game already installed? I seem to recall that I wasn't able to get Duke to *install* after upgrading to XP.
