When I start the game a message pop-ups saying that it won't run in my windows version, I just press continue and it loads but when the mech overheats, or I use the Alpha fire, my computer shows grey for a while then a message says that mech3.exe has problems and must be closed. At that point I have to restart my computer because the mouse freezes, can someone help me out? I'm using windows XP and the compability thing does not work

Update to post above (2008-08-05)
On subsequent missions, APCs would repeatedly drop from the air, and bounce up again. Cresting ridges/hills/river banks, mech would be suspended in mid-air, the display would "crash". This was under native XP, have yet to try any compatibility modes.
Shame, as C&C Red Alert 2 runs fine :-)

Installs ok, no problems. Crashed after running the intro. Restarted, selected Instant Action, and played a couple of games without problems, although crashes if I select battle wave. Installing the 1.2 patch to see if this makes any difference.
Hardware - Tyan 2895, dual opteron 250, 6GB RAM, ATI X1950 Pro. Win XP 64 SP2

Win2k. Run the installer in compatibility mode (W98/95, they both work) and then run the app in NATIVE mode. Works a beaut. Same for Pirate's Moon

1. Run apcomat on setup.exe and set it to Windows 98. 2. Close apcompat from Task Manager (it usually stopped responding on me anyways). 3. Install should go by fine. 4. At the end of install, warning will pop up saying "Can not run Unicode version of ATL.DLL on Windows 95. Please install the correct version." 5. Game still loaded and ran.

Mechwarrior 3 doesnt want to install. You have to copy the install files from the cd, and run the compatibility layer by right clicking the setup file. Works if you set it to win95.

Installs ok, but is unstable and has a tendency to
hang system. Has minor graphics issues which may be caused by beta video drivers.
