[PC] Can't Install Trilogy From DVD

Thank you for the reply.

i know this is non fixable  as I use to work for crm company where I programmed servers on different platforms.

unfortunately we cannot do anything with it.

also the cloud system ideology is kind of protective measure for the game makers because many times people download cracked versions and this way the people who wrote the game not earn anything for their countless hours spent on the game development.

those who using non genuine software the will not care because they will continue with same behaviour and the rest of us will suffer.

for many part of the game that was worked before I had an idea that I make full image of the drive and storing that with the computer where was activated but some games are not working like command and conquer that was worked ok on windows xp unit and one day just stopped.

there was a workaround that was released by EA but that also not working because the XP is no longer supported discontinued.

Even restore doesn’t help.

The only way was to install it on windows 7 where it will work in origin offline mode.

I not connected that pc to internet because I know when the game will start the origin will be talking to EA servers and there will be no hand shake from EA.

and I don’t want to install new os with the new es app and installing the game again from scratch.

I purchased boxed version of c&c where I got all the saga with codes luckily no steam or origin needed.

to the server part

many times the developers write code where they stamping with a code the discontinued software to not talk to their servers for dos measurements denial of services and some companies just having different servers.

I already stopped purchasing many things from Microsoft and also hardwares too.

it is non fixable because even branded phones are working for short period time where the manufacturer releases new and he will push the phone out of the software development where the hardware become only a piece of electronic equipment that is no longer supported by apps.

Same story with windows 10 I own a  few license that may not going to work on windows 11 because the new hardware has no tpm 2 chip onboard.

many companies pushed down with drm and firmware sabotage from software developers where all these industries walks hand in hand to create throw away society where the majority is pushed to get a new one because most of them think when they buying hardware or software it will be their, but the truth is they don’t know that soon as they buying phones or software any kind they only going to have it for a time period.

some for few year and some for 10 year but no longer.

I know I am I different cup of coffee.

for operating system i now using GNU free software like linux trisquel and also built a phone by  myself that is based on replicant os.

both has no back doors no drm no adverts no updates. If any update is released it will be only one or it will be upgrade to new stable version.

in my opinion this is the best way.

not compared to apple or android where the updates are pushed every week or some within few days in large.

I mentioned here a wide spectrum of issues that I know we could not fix.

thank you for your thoughts and reply once again.
