Hello, I am very new to Linux, been using it about a week and I love it so far. But I am having trouble with one thing I think I should be able to do. I would like to play the old Red Alert game that ran on Windows 95.
I have the game unpacked to a file on my hard drive.
So, I right click on the autorun.exe and run it with the WINE Application.
I get the Red Alert startup page but when I click proceed I get an error:
Z:\automenu.exe
There is no application associated with the given file name extension
There is no Z: on the computer so how to I get the autorun to find the automenu.exe file on the hard drive.
I also tried to run the automenu.exe file directly but get an error saying
Unable to locate the necessary files
Please run setup.exe from the disk
Any help would be appreciated.
