Got Generals / Zero Hour working again last night after a bit of googling revealed the game has some 'difficulties' running on multiprocessor systems.
Luckily I had the Windows 2000 Resource Kit sitting around and so with a bit of imagecfg.exe magic, the game now runs again :)
And yes, I'm refraining from my near OBLIGATORY dig at EA games. It's 2006, we all know they suck ;)

Indeed it is Neon,
But I used to love some Skirmish ZH for a quick waste-of-time game and to come away with a general sense of pride after whipping the CPU :D

Total Annihilation > *
That is all.
Incidently, TFD is a waste of money, dont bother with it unless you REALLY want all the games on fewer disks. and since EA botched up the first patch for it (again)....
i so wish that EA would just shrivel up and die. its bad enough they brought out The Sims, do they have to £$%& about with other games too?

Been playing ZH a lot recently, alas the scud bug is still around in the newest patch, just in a different form now, and you have to fully build the scud :(
