Windows XP
 
I can play Abe's Oddysee with no problems on a new Athlon machine running Windows XP but when I try to play Abe's Exoddus I get a 'not supported on NT' error message.
Any ideas out there
Cheers :)

I haven't had any experience with XP, but I run Windows 2000 at work and home and I can run both games on there fine. And Win2000 is a NT based operating system.

Hopefully someone that knows XP can give you some advice.

I was going to move this to Oddworld Help, but something messed up and I can't move it anymore. :(

Weird - I had no problems on my Athlon XP with that OS.

The only things I can think of are the obvious program compatability wizard tool (which is useless anyway), and the screen bit depth you've specified. Creatures 3 forced me to run in 16 bit and a slightly slower resolution when I tried to run it, so that might work.

what changes does Windows 2000 make compared to Windows 98?
