I am trying to install Jane's Fleet Commander on my new comp that runs XP Home. When I put the CD in it pulls up the setup screen, I click install and nothing happens. I have tried running various compatibility modes and it doesnt make a difference. If I open the cd file under my computer, and click on the set-up icon I get the error message "d:/setup.exe is not a valid win32 application"

Jane's Fleet Commander installs fine on my old computer (win98) but its too slow to actually play the game. How can I install this on my new comp w/ XP Home?
