well i swapped exe for no cd crack and it loaded as it was saying application error of some sort.

But when I try to change the resoltuion nothing happnes.

No idea about the original disk copy thought I'd have thought it would be fine on XP at least.. but, you can get the slightly modernized "2000" copy on Steam. It works fine on 7 and XP.

^^ I can confirm the above works

Would be nice to see some people playing multiplayer, but for £2.99 who cares.

I don't remember how well this old release works, but you could try the new avp .exe I wrote (which Rebellion used to make the Steam release, with a few changes)

It fixes a lot of the compatability issues
