yARdsticK 0 Posted April 3, 2002 I've been trying to run some driving simulation games (Colin McRae, Sports Car GT) on my computer and I keep getting this application error 0xc0000142 (Application failed to initialize correctly) or something to that effect. I have been able to run 1st person RPG's before and this is the first time I've had this problem. I have Win 2K Professional. I installed SP2 without SP1. I do everything as the administrator since it is a home computer. The computer itself should be fine. PII-400, 128MB Ram. If anyone has any idea why I'd be getting a message like this I'd like to hear it. Thanks in advance for any replies! Share this post Link to post
