I cant seem to get Turok to run. A error screen that says "Turok.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program."

Im running under a 800mhz Athlon with Windows 2000. I have a RIVA TNT2 3D card. Any ideas?

Find the turok.exe file, right click > properties.

Click the rightmost tab (compatibility, if it's there) > Check the box under 'Run this program in compatibility mode for:' > select your OS.


I never had to use the compatibility thingy, and I never heard of anyone using it. Worth a try though, until somebody comes on with a more educated answer.

Because you never listened.

The basic problem stems from the following:
Windows 98 = DOS architecture
Windows 2K = NT architecture

Try running in compatibility mode for Windows 98, and it should work.
However, I heard of Win2K as quite notorious in terms of compatibility.
