I believe I have a fix for seemingly random crashes while playing C&C95. I have two computers with Pentium 4s with Hyperthreading, and one laptop with a Centrino processor. I found that the laptop had no problems playing C&C95. I guessed that it was due to the hyperthreading, which I think I've read somewhere. Well, here we go. I assume you have Windows XP and the proper fixes to play.
First, you'll want to start up C&C95. It doesn't matter if you have one of the disks in or not. Press the Windows key + M to minimize C&C95. Now, you'll want to open up the Windows Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del ONCE. Find the process named "C&C95.EXE", right-click it, and click "Set Affinity".
A window will pop up with two checkable boxes; check them so that only one of the boxes are checked. Click "OK", then close the Windows Task Manager. Now you should be able to play the game without crashing.
Can anyone else confirm this? It works fine on one of my computers, and C&C95 doesn't want to work anymore on the other P4.
