I've tried playing Thief now about 4 different times on XP using all the suggestions in the technical help portion of the forum, but I can't play it.
I've downloaded the texture fix for Thief 1.33 and extracted it into the directory,and renamed it from thieffixed to Thief. Whenever I try to play a mission, when it loads the actual level up, it crashes straight to desktop with a generic Windows error report.
Whats weird is it used to work fine for me before I formatted my computer, now it's acting up. Any suggestions so I can play the full trilogy?

I had a similar problem with Thief 1 after I updated my video driver. So I reverted back to using an older version of the driver and the game runs fine now.
Also, it might be worthwhile stopping your anti-virus software from running and maybe disabling your firewall (temporarily of course!). These programs could be interfering with the game.
