WC4 won't install on Windows XP

[Ijuin]

I have been trying to install WC4 on my Windows XP machine, but when I try to install it, the program just locks up without going through the install routine at all. Any advice?

Boot from a floppy and install the game. Boot back to Windows and apply the Win95 patch.

I don't have XP but I read it has a DOS Compaliblity mode. Look it up and try it.

Hi all!

I was able to install WC4 in XP Pro straight off the CD.... (althou I havent got my joystik workin properly yet :S )

You could try this: copy the CD to ur HD, select the setup.exe or install.bat (cant remember which is used) right clik it, select properties, go to 'advanced' and set ur compatibility mode to win95... (I know it's for DOS, but it's worth a try)...
