I have looked at the FAQ on the Thief forums but couldn't find anything to do with my problem.

I bought the Thief 1 & 2 double pack. It installed fine. When I launch Thief 1, it plays the opening intro part. But when it gets to the New Game - Load Game (etc) menu it closes and gives me this error message.

Clicking more information gives me this window:

Viewing the technical information on the error gives me this:

Someone on the Thief forums recommended setting Thief to run on 1 core, I did this but still no change.

I'm running Windows XP SP2, E8400 3.0GHz Dual Core, nVidia 8800 GTS 512MB, 2GB RAM.

Any help much appreciated. :)
 
Other than fiddling around with the various compatibility modes, the only thing I can suggest is look for System Shock 2 fixes for XP, as it uses a modified Thief engine.
 
Sorry to not be more help. If it was System Shock 2 I could solve the problem for you in no time at all but I don't really know my way around thief/thief 2 very well :/
