Castles XP

Castles 2 plays well on Windows XP under "Windows 95 compatibility mode". I'm tempted to just re-ZIP the finished installation directory, but if I did that, I'd lose such jewels as these:

Castles II requires a hard disk--it cannot be
installed to floppy disks.  The disk space used
depends on whether the movies are installed.  With
movies Castles II will need 11.0 MB of free space,
and without movies Castles II will need 4.5 MB.

            Press any key to continue...
Note that the movies will appear only in VGA mode.
However, they can still be installed even if you
plan to play in EGA mode or Tandy 1000 mode.

      Press any key to begin the installation.

And who can resist the charm of this:

Please insert disk 5 into drive C
and press any key to resume.

Sure thing. Just let me get my tiny screwdrivers and an extra hard disk platter....
