Hi guys.
I installed the game, which i bought with The Metal Age in the 'Sold Out' range, and it does the opening cutscene then when the thing goes to main menu i get windows error message: encountered an errror, needs to close...
Some of the information:
appname: thief.exe AppVer: 1.9.0.0 Modname: thief.exe
Modver: 1.9.0.0 offset: 0012027a
the following files will be included in this error report : C:\DOCUME~1\DERMET~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\8043_appcompat.txt
I'm running Windows XP.....
Help...please guys?
I love this game - haven't played in years.
Danke.

Well, assuming that it's a clean install, make sure you have the latest video and audio drivers for your machine.
You also might want to disable your audio device in the windows Device manager and see if the game will run. (I know my SB Audigy2 ZS doens't like thief...it used to...)
If all else fails, go ask some friends if they have an old Pentium II machine lying around they don't want or use.
