    Old games are often in needs of setup of sound. Autoexec isn't enough. Try to run other exe in directory.
    What is the text of the compilation error?

      The game doesn't run on win9x, period. Noone has been able to make it run on win 9x. I've tried sound setup, but it crashes.

        Set it to run with no sound. Then try running it in DOS.
        Success will mean it is your soundcard settings causing problems and you can then focus on fixing that.
        I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

            Get a copy of MS-DOS 6.22. Then start messing with config.sys and autoexec.bat
