OK! what do I do? I really like this game and would like to play it if I can get it installed. Any one know the secret to this problem? Besides it not being compatable!

I assume you don't mean Monkey Island 1/2, since they don't use installshield.
 
That leaves either Curse of Monkley Island or Escape from Monkey Island.
 
Which one?
 
Sounds to me like missing files.

Escape from Monkey Island is what I have. Do you have a solution?

if you install scummVM you can play these old games, like Loom, Simon the Sorcerer etc

Please don't resurrect old posts and ScummVM doesn't work for Escape from Monkey Island.
