Computer question

Can a copy of Civilization II Gold from a few years ago be installed onto a newer computer that runs Windows 2000?

I can't imagine why not. If you have trouble, you can try editing the properties on the shortcut to turn on the "Windows 95 Compatibility Layer".

Oh, another note: the account you use to install the program will almost certainly have to be an Administrator of the local machine, and you will probably have to be at least a Power User and possibly an Administrator to play it.
