Has anyone been able to get this game to run on windows xp?  I am having
trouble getting it to run, it keeps wanting to send an error report.  It
doesn't even try to run.  Installed 1.01 patch and no cd patch and still
doesnt work.  And yes, it is an oem copy.

Are you running the game in Compatibility Mode?  That could be the problem and/or if you've got a Creative sound card there seems to have always been problems between this game and the Live! card, for instance.  Make sure you're updated on all your drivers.

Were did you get a no cd patch for sprints version 1.01? Everyone I have
found is for 1.00. Besides the compatabilty mode you may also need to select
the no checksum box in the options editor.
