I copied it from a Windows 95 system to a Windows 2000 system and when I run it I get "The procedure entry point SUnMapLS_IP_EBP_20" could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll". I'm curious if it's possible to copy the game from one computer to another like this? I need it on the second computer to try playing a networked game and I don't have the original CD. Michael

Methinks you're gonna have to locate the CD. Sounds Colin McRae installed some Windows 95-specific game files. One of those files is calling a function in a Windows component. That function apparently doesn't exist under Windows 2000. KERNEL32.DLL is a Windows file, NOT a Colin McRae file. It is specific to your version of Windows so it would be a really BAD idea to try to copy it to your Win2000 PC! Especially not from 95 to 2000 - that's a couple of generations difference. I have copied installed versions of games from one PC to another without any problems, but I've never tried Colin McRae. For example, I've copied my original GPL installation from Win98 to Win2000 and it worked fine. It's dependent on the game I guess.
