Strategic Command Doesn't Start

When I try to start Strategic Command Classic Weapons & Warfare, my screen goes blank briefly and then my desktop reappears. There is an icon for the game in the task bar. When I click on it,the Slitherine and Matrix logos appear briefly, and then my desktop reappears. How do I get this game to run?

Windows Security Message

<r> When I click on the icon to start this game, I get a windows security box shown below. Entering my Matrix user name and password does not work. If I cancel the box, the game will run anyway, but the left of the menu says that I am not authorized to access the document requested. How do I end ...

RE: Good Starter Scenario?

That's an approach I've used in games before. This time I felt I wanted something simpler to work with.

RE: Good Starter Scenario?

<t> Thank you for your suggestions. I downloaded Remagen, and I will look at the desert scenarios.<br/>
<br/>
I will save Denmark Strait and Waterloo for later. I want to get the hang of the basic World War II core of the game before trying naval scenarios or other eras.<br/>
<br/>
That said, if ...
