I've got the original IL-2 Sturmovik...and need help.
I want to run this on my windows 7 home premium laptop, but when I put the disc in, the autorun doesn't start and the setup won't run. So I am confined to a dinosaur windows 98 desktop in a cold room. Help please!

I have this problem a lot. Have you tried looking on the disc and clicking on set up and install there? It usually takes a few minutes to kick in to install, it's a real pain.

^Yep,
Happens to me too on Win7, you just go to My Computer right-click your DVD drive and click Open then either Setup.exe should work or that other one called a.exe if it's IL2 1946. HunterICX

Ok. I'll try again. I really like the old IL-2. I got it in the strategic simulations commanders pack thingy with Silent Hunter 2 and Flanker 2.5. I started a new German fighter career the other day and I got 34 kills air and ground already.

because I've got the original IL2 (not 1946) lying around somewhere so if it doesn't work I could give it a look. HunterICX
