Best Answer

From the download link you provided, If you click on 'System Requirements' tab below the download button you can see that Windows 7 is not listed as compatible OS.

Supported Operating System: Windows 2000, Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows ME, Windows XP

You have to run the setup file in compatibility mode with one of the OS above.

1) Right-click on the file and select 'Properties'

2) Click on the 'Compatibility' tab

3) In the section 'Compatibility mode', click on the 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' check box.

4) From the list below select 'Windows XP (Service Pack 3)' and click OK.

This procedure worked for me and I was able to install it. However when I tried to run the game, nothing happened. So I had to do the same procedure for the patriots.exe file. It is located in the main directory of the game.

Give it a try and you shouldn't have any problems running the game.
