Installing Carma 1 on Vista Ultimate 64??

Post by Reno »

Hey, I'm having Real trouble trying to Install C1 on my PC which is running Vista Ultimate 64, for starters the CD/Installer doesn't Auto Launch (and yes it's a legit retail CD) it just wants to play the music so I have to Explore the CD and Click the Installer But Everytime I click the Installer it throws up a box saying:

"The version of this file is not compatible with this version of Windoes you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher"

I've tried All the Installers on the CD and all do the same. Now I figured there may be problems due to how old the game is but whats odd is the 'Dark Angel' aka DA or however you know him has Vista Ultimate 64 aswell but his C1 installed just fine! Though he did say his was the Maxpack version of the game but I can't see the compatability being any different.

Any help would be great!

Thanks,

Reno.

Getting a warez version of C1 isn't a real trouble, just search C1 on torrents, most ones i got were max pack versions (which i then didn't need as i have that one).

Right, I've actually managed to get hold of the Max Pack off ebay, tried installing it straight onto vista just incase the installer etc was 32bit on this version instead of 16bit but still got the same errors so have tried Dosbox but no luck and have tried Virtual PC 2007 with my old legit Win98 SE on it which appeared to work as it all installed but when I went to play it, it only displays the left half of the screen :confused: so I still can't play it. Any Ideas?
