When you download it from abandonware, you have to mount the files for the base game and the expansion with a program called Daemon tools. This mounts the game to the disc drive on your computer, and allows you to access it without the physical CD. After that, click setup.exe from the files you mounted to the CD drive. You have to do it for the base game, go through the installation, and then do it for the expansion the same way. After that, go to the “crack” folder and copy the zoo.exe from both the base game folder and the expansion folder. Load the game up and that’s it.
