I wanted to run the fan-patch located at (http://tinyurl.com/h1o2), but that page no longer exists. The file "thief2vidpatch.zip" is found in only one place online (http://darkfate.iskratelecom.ru:81/F...CHEs/Metal_Age) however, that server does not respond to requests. The core page for this URL responds, but when searching for the file on the site (using google) it points to the link that is not responding.

Anyone get hold of this fan made patch? Cause I've tried everything and my game still crashes as soon as I try to start it.

Bad news, I've been trying to get Thief 2 to work for a week now and so far no luck. I had no problems during installation but as soon as I try to start the game it crashes with the usual windows "send error report" dialog followed by

The Intruction at "xxxx" referenced memory at "xxxx". The memory could not be "read".

click on OK to Terminate the program.

I really have tried everything on the FAQ, i think..

Ah, I see what my problem is. My card is Geforce 7600 GT. My graphics drivers are to new. Where is a site for older graphics drivers?
