How to run Tiberian Sun on Windows 7

backwards compatibilitycommand-and-conquer-tiberian-sun

I downloaded EA's free Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun release, but when I try to run it, it complains of missing or broken DLLs. I tried to run the DLL regfix file, but it errored saying it could not access the registry. What do I do to fix it? I don't think the answer to this question would help (I don't think what I have is Command and Conquer Gold).

Best Answer

Right click and run as administrator, but be aware the game is not compatible with 64 bit versions of Windows 7.
