Couldn't find any old posts about this, so I'll ask even though I'm sure
someone has answered this before:
I tried to install a game (I have XP) and it wouldn't install because it
wants Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 3 or higher. I downloaded that, and it
extracts everything until the last file, update.exe, and then says "the
procedure entry point setupapi.CM_Disable_Devnode could not be located in the
dynamic link library CFGMGR32.dll." I haven't found any helpful advice for
fixing this and would appreciate anything....

Hi Anabur,
Try installing and playing that using 95/98 Compatibility mode.
To install a program using Windows XP's Compatibility Mode, hold
down SHIFT as you insert the game CD, use My Computer to browse
to the setup program, and then skip down to step 1 in the list below:
To run an installed program using Windows XP's Compatibility Mode,
first right click the program and "Send To..." / Desktop (create shortcut).
1.. Right click on the shortcut to the program.
2.. Click on Properties.
3.. Click on the Compatibility tab.
4.. Click on Run this program in compatibility mode and select one of these:
a.. Windows 95
b.. Windows 98
c.. Windows NT 4
d.. Windows 2000
5.. Under Display settings, check mark the mode that you think that is best:
a.. Run in 256 colors.
b.. Run in 640 X 480 screen resolution.
c.. Disable visual themes.
Click on Apply.Click on Ok.Double click on the program.
If you'd like to learn more information about compatibility mode, you can click the
link in the Compatibility tab that reads "Learn more about program compatibility",
or watch this Application Compatibility Power Point Presentation:
