For all the people out there, who remember and like the Win version of C2 over the DOS version (and have it still somewhere around), here are the fixes you need to get it to work on a modern (64bit) OS (tested on Win7):
1. winevdm on 64-bit Windows (github) - The installer of C2 is 16bit and wont work on 64bit Windows. With this program the installer runs, but you maybe must proceed to the next step.
2. Leisure Suit Larry 7 Setup Fix [url=]http://ayumi_chan15.tripod.com/soft/lsl7setup.html[/url] - When you start the installer of C2, its out of the screen. With this fix you can make it visible again.
3. WinG32 - dll needed for running C2. Grab it for example from pcgamingwiki. You have to put it in C:\Windows\SysWOW64
The only drawback: the main game window (building window) is always 640x480, regardless of your desktop resolution (see picture below). So you should lower the desktop resolution before playing.
