Hello everyone, weird problem here. I just bought Thief 1 and 2 - the Sold Out package with both of them on a single double sided DVD - and have a problem with DP: It installed fine, but after the intro video plays it just CTDs. Thief 2 (V 1.9) loads and works fine, though I had to enable the safe texture manager fix first.
I read the help page and this is as near as it got:

Game Stops Responding (Hangs) or Quits Unexpectedly When Introductory Video Clip Is Played.
If you are running Windows XP with Service Pack 1 applied you may want to check out this page at Microsoft, which includes an update that has reportedly fixed video problems with the Thief games.
I am one-hundred per cent sure it's not a codec problem because I fixed all those (including the one above) to play SS2 and, like I said, Thief 2 works.
Could it be a result of this?

Would installing one of the thief 1 patches work? The EXE says its version 1.9 but i didn't see a patch for that and I'm out of ideas. Any help?
Thanks.
