WHERE IT SAYS :
ScreenWidth=1768
ScreenHeight=992
CHANGE THIS TO YOUR SCREEN WIDTH AND HEIGHT BY RIGHT CLICKING YOUR DESKTOP AND CHECKING YOUR SCREEN RESOLUTION.
THEN SAVE THE FILE AS RA2.ini
paste this into the origin games folder in the C😛rogramfiles origingames command and conquer red alert II root folder and double check it as normal and it should boot 🙂
i have it all working on windows 7 x64
