Hi I have an old Windows XP computer on which I used to play Transport 
Tycoon using the patch TTAlter but I want to transfer it to a new computer 
twin booting between XP and Vista so that my grandson can play it. I was 
going to just put the hard drive into the new computer but it does not fit, 
the old drive is IDE the new computer only takes SATA drives. So I saved the 
game folders to a CD and transferred it that way.

However I have forgotten how to install it, the computer complains that the 
game is not installed. What have I forgotten?

Also will it run in Vista?

Thanks, Jan
