Title: WinXP problems when games says it is XP compatable?
Review: I'm sorry, but when a game says it is WinXP compatable, but you have to modify it to make it run on XP, then it isn't compatable.I had 2 of the original games, and had to do a lot of work to get them working. I can live with that with the originals. But I got the platinum version because it implied that it worked, out of the box, with XP. It doesn't.To the reviewer that said that you can troubleshoot it, why should we have to?Since just about everyone is using XP, stay away from this, unless you like messing with it. Even IGN sites don't have a "this will make it work on XP" patches or fixes.Great games, if you can get it to work. If you aren't computer knowledgable enough to get them going without worrying about grabbing virus laden programs, stay away! I have it 2 stars, because if you can get them to work, these are great games.
