To set for Win98 or another, right click on cc5.exe and select properties. Choose the "Compatibility" tab and you'll see the option for the mode of your choosing. This may not be a total solution though. The issue of disappearing multiplayer buttons remained constant for me, no matter how I adjusted this, my firewall, administrative settings, etc. In the end, I was able to play multiplayer CC5 only after installing Virtual PC and running the game through a virtual XP desktop. Cumbersome and difficult for someone (such as myself) with few computer skills, but definitely better than nothing.
I instaled everything ok, and it works like a charm single player. Mods? no problem, GJS and Meuse have worked fine so far. It´s multyplayer that won´t work. Tried on Gamespy both host and guest, nothing. Was gona try IP, and now it got weird. The multy in game menu looks fine BUT! their are no sub menus?? I cant even type in a IP address! I´ve told the firewall to keep his frigging hands of both cc and gamespy. I´ve also told the antivirus to do the same(Bullguard) Also am running programs as admin. What else can I do? can see the in game multy menu now that I am running it in xp mode.
