How do you get CFS3 to run with Windows 10?

CFS3 did run with Windows 8 and 8.1 but will NOT run with Windows 10.

How do you fix this?

    BossDweeb's March 23 post is CORRECT.  See "SOH Combat Flight Simulator" for additional info.

    Now it's telling me that COMMON.DLL and a host of other dynamic Links "Are Missing".

    Is this related to my loading the game on my partitioned drive.  I keep only OS on c drive.

    Do not believe Larry Ware's post. He is ill informed and incorrect. The game is compatible with Win10,

    but due to MS blocking the driver for SafeDisk copy protection the disk based version of the game requires

    a noCD fix/hack to run on Win10 (as well as Win7/8/8./1 if the offending "security" update has been installed)

    I have full details in my post at  --this thread --

    Also - This game is not DOS based, as Hardcore suggests,  so DOS BOX is no use.
