TR-Chronicles and Win XP Home (NT Format) Issues...

Archived from groups: alt.games.tombraider (More info?)

Okay, I know that Eidos said it wasn't prepared to deal with Win XP, and I know
that XP has this compatability function....

....however, I seem to be running into this problem: TR-Chronicles' EXE file
keeps crashing the moment it starts...

....and now the Setup EXE file is also starting to crash on startup.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. The title shows the type of XP and the
file format I'm using.
