Dug this game out and fancied playing it but after installing it the game crashes when i try to run it. There are 3 exe's - Software, hardware and MMX .. and they all do the same thing when run. Black screen few seconds of activity then back to the desktop with Q.exe has failed message.
Have tried it on another XP machine with another graphics card but the same issue on there. Have also tried compatability mode with windows 98 and windows 95.
Looking on ntcompatible the game is listed as running ok !
Another thing when i insert the cd media player starts up and seems to think its a james bond cd .. which was odd to say the least !
Its an original cd .. big box edition of the game, which if i remember correctly had problems installing on windoes 98 SE due to the direct x on that OS. installed fine on win 98 1st edition and seemingly installed fine on xp ..
any ideas ? .. anyone else got it working on their xp machine ?
