Loved CG on 98, never got it running on 2k, been avoiding XP forever.
XP Home on laptop, can't get it working. Manage to get it to run, no matter what I try, the cultist bug happens. However, very odd news..
XP x64, Corporate Edition - working flawlessly.
- Windows Update (I believe I'm about a month out of date, but hey. )
- dxdiag, turn off sound acceleration
- Copied CD to HD (CD was being flaky in my drive for some reason)..
- Enabled Win98 compat on setup.exe, installed.
- Did not patch game.
- Enabled Win98 compat on WH40K.exe, played.
Strangely, runs beautifully so far - time for me to get some bloody sleep, so I've only run the first two missions, but no problems - sound fine, video fine, animation fine, Word Bearers exploding fine, cultists shooting laspistols fine...
Go figure, the system that gives me nothing but trouble with older games (mainly due to the 64 bit goodness) runs CG great. God, I've missed this game.
