It won't run on Windows XP for more than half an hour!!! (I have looked on the internet for a cure, and I installed the Windows compatibility administrator to fix it, but I still can't get it to run for long.)
***RECOMMENDATIONS for Users/Consumers of DK2: ***
I am including this section for those diehard DK loyalists who really want to play this game on their Win 2000/XP system. There are a few things you have to do.
One is, download the upgrade to version 1.7. This is available for free on many places on the web. Get it from a legit source. Avoid pirate Russian/east European web sites which typically attempt to install spyware on your PC. DK2 will ***NOT WORK*** on Windows 2000 without this upgrade! You have been warned! I have never found any difficulty obtaining the upgrade as it is available on many gamer sites.
Two is, you may need to run dxdiag from your Windows Run menu. This *may* fix problems such as choppy/erratic sound or video. Or, it may not, and you may spend many hours trying to get it to work, without success.
Just some reviews i found on amazon hope these help with your decision.
