    I was doing a bit of cleaning and found my old copy of total annihilation and instantly went to play it.. unfortunately i'm not running windows 95 anymore and i'm having some trouble with it.

    I'd really appreciate if anyone could tell me a way to run it on windows 7 if it can be done?

    It can definitely be done as Gog.com have it for sale. As to how much work is involved is unfortunately anyones guess.

    I was just going to mention gog.com

    You could try Dosbox - http://www.dosbox.com/

    You will see from the Dosbox site that gog.com themselves use Dosbox to run some of their games.

    If you have the time/patience you could try downloading a virtualisation tool such as VMWare Player and create a virtual machine running Windows95/98. You would need an original Windows95/98 cd or iso to install the OS though.

    maybe try installing it on winXP first if you can and copy the program file over to win7. i did that and it runs no problem on my laptop.
