Hi all!
I am only beginner in W2000 so please advise me how to install Whistler Application Compatibility Toolkit 2 under W2000 Pro.
I downloaded it from www.microsoft.com but when I try to install it the message "Windows Whister 2462 required" always appears.
I found some threads here in this forum but I still don't understand the installation procedure.

Thanks a lot.

www.freedrive.com
login: ntcompatible1
pass: ntcompatible1

Download the .msi file and apphelp.zip

1. Go into C:\winnt and make a backup of the APPPATCH directory.
2. Extract the contents of apphelp.zip into the APPPATCH directory.
3. Run the .MSI file and install it.

If anyone can give me the updated files from the latest Whistler beta so I can update the .zip I would be grateful!

Thank you DosFreak...

But I can't find anything in this Freedrive account.
Maybe that I don't know where to search or these folders are empty...

The freedrive site refuses to recognize the ntcompatible1 account.
What gives?

This thread is over 3 years old.

I suspect that DosFreak has closed the account since then

Hi
EAW is short for Europan Air War, a WW2 air combat simulation made by Microprose. If anyone knows how to make this game run in Windows 2000, please explain here... I am desperate...
