Will SDOE run under Win2000?

TargetPractice Cadet	posted 05-28- 03:05 PM Subject says it all. I recent installed Windows 2000 and the installer crashes before it even gets started. Is this a known issue? Is there any work-around? IP: Logged
jgro Pilot	posted 05-28- 08:49 PM TP, I have SDOE running on my Win2000 machine at work with no problems. My framerates suck, but that's because of the graphics card. I don't know what your problem could be with the installer. Do you have directX installed? jgro ------------------ Jgro's Aerodrome www.jgrosaerodrome.50megs.com IP: Logged
TargetPractice Cadet	posted 05-29- 08:01 AM Yes, I'm running DirectX 8. But I don't think that should effect the installer. As soon as the installer starts up, it displays an error box saying: "_INS5576._MP.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows." IP: Logged
Da Jug head Cadet	posted 05-29- 09:24 AM There is a Windows 2000 patch you need to download and install that fixes compatibility issues with Win2000 and a number of games. Do a search in this section for Windows 2000 and Win2000 to find the patch number. This was a Microsoft issue, not an SDOE issue.
