Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat

This is a discussion about Warhammer: Shadow of the Horned Rat in the Windows Games category; I realise that this is an Nt/98 based game and when trying to install it on XP had an error message. I then tried running it from Windows 95 compatibility mode and the same error message came up, can anyone help please? Would be appreciated.

Realize that this thread is from 2003.
 
But simply, this game was designed to run in Windows 98. If you have a copy on Windows 98, you can install it in a virtual environment, say Vmware.
 
I also found this how-to. It's fairly up to date and may work.
