Default 688i patch info

Does anyone know if I can get a patch which will allow me to play 688(i) (win 95) on Windows XP home. I used to play this game quite a bit and would like to try my hand at it again.

Thanks

Alvin

Welcome aboard!

You need "JANE'S 688(I) CUSTOM .DLL FILES" (and patch 1.07):

I just wish SA had come out with a NoCd fix for this.

For 688i ??.

No need for a nocd fix, there is a way for this to be played without the cd in the drive

Default How About SSN?

Does anyone know of any patches (specifically where to get them) for Tom Clancy's SSN for XP? I used to love playing it....a bit simple yet fun

You mean right clicking on the disk and then selecting windows 95 or 98 under the properties? If so yes I have and it didn't work......thanks though.
