Problem with installing old Windows 95 game

Post by Shteve »

I was trying to install Dungeon Keeper Gold (ah, nostalgia), so I got it online, burned the disk image etc. etc. When I opened the Setup.exe file I get an error message saying "Dungeon Keeper Gold requires Windows 95 or Windows NT 4 or higher". I tried setting Wine to run it as Windows 95, then as NT 4, and I get the same error message every time. Any suggestions?

If by "got it online" you mean "illegally," then try a legal copy. Pirated software is not supported.

If you mean the version available from GOG.com, the AppDB has some tips. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=28495
