Is Master of Olympus - Zeus available for Windows 10?

Does anyone know if Master of Olympus - Zeus is available for Windows 10?

The background is that I bought a disc from Amazon three months ago. My Lenovo Legion Y520 doesn't have a built-in DVD Drive so the only way I could install it was via an external DVD writer. Having installed it, I could view the characters but still couldn't get the game to run. The cover said minimum requirements are Window 95/98; I'd assumed that I could run it in Compatibility mode but I haven't been able to.
Amazon have been great and are refunding my money.

I have Windows 10 version 2004 build 19041.508 and I'll change my signature shortly


PS I'm beginning to wonder if my external DVD writer is modern enough. Although it's only a couple of years old, it says on the box that it's "Windows 8 compatible". Should I be using it with a Windows 10 laptop?

I have a couple of External USB CD/DVD drives that work with Win7 and newer so that shouldn't be a problem with yours. If you can read a disc with it the power from the USB port should be sufficient but may be better if using a USB 3 [blue] port as it provides more power for the drive. Some older drives had a Y-cable, one leg was data and power and the other leg was for more power, downside was needing 2 USB ports and some Notebooks didn't have 2 ports close enough together. Also helpful may be a Self-Powered USB 3 Hub.

One other option is to copy the contents of a CD or DVD onto a USB Thumb drive and run setup from there. In the past have seen the contents of a disc copied to a folder on the hard drive and run from there if there's was sufficient space to do so.

Hello again, Berton. I tried your suggestion to copy the contents of the disk onto a USB Thumb drive and run setup from there.
I put a blank, formatted 32gig USB into a USB 3.0 hub but I was unable to copy the disk.

It seems to me that here there are two problems.
(1) When I bring up a list of the contents, there is no "copy all" command.
(2) There is a "burn to disk" command but no "burn/copy to USB" command.

I tried copying the disk to my desktop but had the same problems. Am I missing something obvious?

The answer to both questions is that with File Explorer open and the CD or DVD in the drive click on the drive icon in the left panel/list, contents shoulr be listed in the right panel. Click on the top item on the right then do one of two things, scroll to the bottom item and while holding the Shift key click it, should highlight all then the right-click context menu should have some choices. The other way in that right panel is to press Ctrl + A to Select all. Then simply Copy to the USB drive.

I would find a free .iso burner. Ashampoo has a good free one but you'll need to register with an email and you will get some spam off them. You can always unsubscribe. Or find an alternative free one.

Create an .iso file of the disk and save to your computer. Mount the .iso and install the game. Run in Windows 8 compatibility mode. I'm assuming that the disk needs to be in the drive to play. All you would need to do after ending the play session would be to un-mount it and to play again would be to mount it again with out having the need of using the optical drive.

I tried again but keep getting the error message "disc not inserted", but it is.
This error message keeps appearing too:


What should I do now, please?

Do other discs work in the drive? If not it most likely is a hardware issue.
