I am running a 64 bit windows 7 home edition and I cannot get this to run. I have set compatibility to win95, done the fullscreen fix suggested above to set it as a window, I am not sure what else to do. As someone said it is a win95 games so I cannot run it in DOSbox to my knowledge.

Has anyone gotten this to run in a 64 bit environment, hopefully window 7?

I appreciate I'm somewhat late but hey, this is also an old game, improves with age and the absence of a reboot right?

I have the game working well, including saving and restoring save games, on a Windows 7 64 bit installation.

The one and only thing I've done to achieve this is run the game via D-Fend Reloaded. In detail what I did was:

1. Install D-Fend Reloaded (I used a portable installation)
2. Manually created a game folder for Chaos Overlords in the D-Fend Virtual HD folder
3. Unzipped the content of the archive for Chaos Overlords downloaded from this site
4. Used Profile > Add Manually within D-Fend Reloaded and told it to run Chaos Overlords.exe
5. In game, disabled the music to prevent the flickering cursor
6. Set my windows taskbar to auto-hide, so that it did not obscure part of the gaming screen (I can only run fullscreen, haven't managed to run inside a window yet)
