Ceasar 4 error

[SpringWater]

I bought Ceasar 4 something like 5 years ago, but I never got to play it because every time I install it, no matter on what computer (I tried on at least 3) it always shows me some error saying FAILED TO INITIALIZE and some numbers when I try to run it after installing. Is it possible to run this game???

If your machines are vista, 7 or 8 then its possible this game may not run in these OS's. You can try running the install in compatibility mode and see what happens. If these systems have XP, then make sure you are running SP3.

One of my machines was running windows xp w/o sp 3 so it's understandable that the game didn't work, second one was running vista, and the one I tested yesterday was running windows xp sp3, and it still has the same problem...any other ideas?

Anyone?

Have you got the right .NET framework? That can mess up game installations sometimes

The what? I would have to have it messed up on all 3 computers which I don't think is the case...

Didn't see that, could be the disc is corrupt or scratched? Im not sure to be honest

This the point where my mind gets blown, the CD is perfectly intact, not a single scratch and it still gives me this error... I think I'll just give up... maybe I'll come back to this case in another 5 years .
