With disc in tray or image mounted, create a folder in your desktop. Copy all of the disc's content to a folder in your desktop. Download the installer. Place Setup32.exe in the main folder and run it. Copy the missing files from the desired language folder into the main folder. Run Setup32.exe and install the game.

Graphical glitches on modern Windows
