Which Operational Art of War game is it? And which version of Windows are you running?

Thread moved to the Tech Corner.

Its volume one, the first one in the series. I am running win 7 64 bit.

Okay, right-click on the game executable, and select 'Properties'. Go to the 'Compatibility' tab. Set everything up to match this image:

Hope it works! Let me know if you have any trouble.

It starts up, but it crashes immediately. Flashes a black screen and poof, the process is gone as well

Have you tried running it in DosBox? It might be a bit new for that, but it's worth a shot.

It's a Windows game so DOSBox doesn't help (unless you install Windows 9x in DOSBox).

I'd try using DxWnd:
