Thunder, I've found the XP patch at the Firaxis website but now I have a more perplexing problem.

When I try to install Sid Meier's Gettysburg on my XP machine I get the following error message:

"autolee.exe-entry point not found. The procedure entry point UnMapLS could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL.32.dll."

This occurs whether I let the cd auto-run or try to access the cd manually through My Computer.

It only happens with this game. I can install other Win 95 games (including other Firaxis games) with no problems. I would think if something was wrong with KERNEL.32.dll it would show up when trying to install these games also.

I solved the problem by using ...start/run/cmd, then changed directories to the cd drive and ran the setup.exe from there. Works great now! Lot of monkey business for XP. I can imagine what Vista will do to our old favorites.
