Title: Thrawn's Revenge not loading, says application is not compatible
Post by: lordkenobi on March 19, 2017, 04:39:54 PM: Tried launching Thrawn's Revenge and got the error message:

This application is not compatible with installed operation system. Please upgrade to Windows 98SE, 2000 or better.

I'm running on Windows 10 and was playing EAT and EAT:FOC perfectly before with the RAM patch. But now they won't load either with the same error. What should I do? Any advice would be awesome! Thanks!
