Not to jump in your throat, Bradley... but are you positive that the archive is HOTUs? And that the archive is completely useless? You are a webmaster yourself, and you should know that you need to try everything before claiming that something doesn't work.
*goes to fetch the original CD*
FINAL LIBERATION: Warhammer Epic 40.000
Windows 95 CD-ROM
*cough*
*loads up the CD into the other laptop*
*Tries running it in XP*
....
....
The CD autoloads... good.
*clicks Install*
....
....
Nothing happens - the progam selfcloses.
Alright... so it doesn't work in XP.
*tries in DOS*
...
...
The program automatically places a WIN command in front of MY commands.
Alright... so it doesn't work in DOS, either.
*tries to load the CD in Win95 compatibility mode*
...
...
Critical Failure and the entire laptop restarts. Yay.
So...
In closing... unless you actually have Windows 95 on your machine, don't even bother trying to get the game to work.
And next time... please don't attack people who have done a lot of work to get the archive sent to you. At least not until you have tried everything.
Abandonware Webmasters should know how it feels to get lots of negative comments on the hard work they do. Throwing it back at people who only tries to help is just... there's no excuse, really.
You wanted the archive. megakungfuradio gave it to you. Don't blame him for granting your wish. It's not his fault that the game doesn't work unless you actually have Win95.
