Can't get AVP Gold running

[Jak]

Anyone remember the original Aliens VS Predator for PC? I just re-installed it on my system, and I can't get it to run. The opening FMV plays, I hit enter to skip it, and the sound of the FMV loops. I get into a game, and it just crashes. I set the affinity to 1 core, but that didn't do anything. Can anyone help me out?

Yea, bit of a nightmare to get this game runnin' man. I can't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure it wont run on XP or Vista no matter what you do.

I'd recommend grabbin' yourself a copy of Windows 98SE if you can. Once you've done that you've got three options. Either find another PC to stick it on. Duel-boot it onto your XP64 system or use a virtual machine like VMWare Workstation (recommended).

VMWare Workstation is capable of running DirectX stuff, so you shouldn't have a problem with it.

I didn't read it, but check it out for yourself. NVIDIA Forums -> Nvidia "PLEASE" for the love of god.. fix this..
