Fallout 2 on XP

[jeb2 0]

Fallout 2 can't run on my Win XP. The compatibility mode is useless.

Are there some patches or fixes? Heeeeelp!

If you have the original version then a patch is needed.

What's the error?

Fallout 2 is installed but when I want to play, it indicates me that Fallout 2 won't run without the CD. However, the CD is in!!

[DosFreak 2]

Is it the original CD? As far as I know all Fallout 2 has is the CD check. No other copy protection. So if your CD is an unoriginal copy it could be corrupted. Try a NO CD crack on it.

My CD is an original one! Where can I find a NO CD crack?

If you cannot find one then look on www.google.com for Daemon Tools. It's a CD emulator.

European versions of Fallout 2 are missing children in the game, but they have something that other version don´t have: LaserLock copy protection

I can't install the game on XP. If I click 'Install' on the autorun menu, the res switches and I get a black screen. After a few seconds it switches back to the desktop with the normal resolution.

 

Same if I click the setup.exe on the CD also. Tried running the setup.exe in Compatibility Mode but nothing works. Using SP2 if it makes any significance.
