Red Alert 2

When I played Red Alert 2, I found it impossible to enter.

When I change the compatibility and can enter the game, the display is black. I can only see the cursor, and hear the sound of the cursor clicking the game button.

Debugging again is useless, the problem is not resolved.

Request solution.

    Have you tried running in Win09 compatibility ? This forces the game to run on a single cpu core,

    which is the best option for some games of this vintage.

    I had a similar problem with Tony Hawk Pro2 on Win10 (not on Win7). The setup screens loaded,

    but the game crashed when trying to load a level.

    Note the game also uses SafeDisk copy protection, which could also be a problem.

    I have more details in my post at  -- this thread --

    • EA Origin has a C&C bundle which includes Red Alert 2 - $29- USD which should not have

    any issues with Win10 ( I would check their forums first... Check them anyway. You may find a fix for yours ).
