I have now got Red Alert working on Vista Home Premium -

Install red alert as follows:
open cd, setup95 folder, install.exe
set compatibility mode on install.exe to win98/me

Install Red Alert 1.08 patch:
ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/redalert/updates/RA108USP.EXE

Then set compatibility on RA95.exe (and all other .exe files in directory) as follows:
mode: win 95
run in 256 colurs
run in 640x480 screen resolution
disable visual themes

+ With one additional step:

Download LAN Patch 1.1. Final from

http://www.understorm.net/cnc/lan/cnc95_ra1.php

Overwrite the existing thipx32.dll file in the C:\westwood\redalert directory

Double click on your RA95.exe with the cd still in the drive

Enjoy the game!
