Is there a way to install the original Command and Conquer on Windows 7?

Solution 1:

Install the patch by nyerguds - http://nyerguds.arsaneus-design.com/cnc95upd/cc95p106/

This patch lets you play C&C on newer OS's and with higher resolutions. Also lots of bug fixes in it.....

EDIT: There is a patched installer available for download here with details... http://digiex.net/downloads/download-center-2-0/games/2929-command-conquer-gold-full-hard-disk-install.html
