Soul Reaver doesn't work on WinXP Pro
I can't get soul reaver (I'm talking about the first one) to work on WinXP. The game crashes the second I double click on kain2. exe. I don't even get an error message, windows just aks me if I want to report the error.

I don't even get an error message, windows just aks me if I want to report the error. i have tried running it in compatibility mode for all sorts of windows, but no luck. The 1.2 patch didn't work either. I really love this game and I'm willing to install win98 in another partition if it won't work otherwise, but if anyone can save me the trouble, I'd be grateful.

Not sure what to tell you. It works fine here.
IIRC, The game uses SafeDisk copy protection.
Try a NOCD crack from www.gamecopyworld.com

Didn't MS just release a SafeDisc patch for Windows XP? Something along the lines of limited-access user accounts?

downloaded or bought?
