Works great, except if you're not using 5.1 sound, & are just using either 2 speakers, 2.1 or a prologic system make sure you turn off EAX in the options, or at certain points in the game you'll get a kind of bass feedback.

I have contacted Take Two on many occasions and they will not address this problem between MP2 and Windows2003

No problem at all.

How did you get it to work under Win2003?

It does not work : W2003 Enterprise Fr with no WindowsUpdate. "Maxpayne2.exe" process starts but ends a few seconds after

For whatever reason, Max Payne 2 DOES work under windows 2003 server but only if you install it, then download a NOCD patch works fine with it but not without.

Win2K3 is a server platform and should not be subjected to gaming applications. We have 2k and XP for that.

Im Running a Intel system with the 875 chipset.
Intel 3.4ghz prescott
1.5gigs ram
raid0-intel
two raptor 72gig HD's
ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe

After I installed game I only had to patch with the 1.01 version and it all works great.

Runs but much slower then under Windows XP

Runs fine under Vista Home Premium 32-bit, and the 1.01 patch installs OK.

I haven't tried 5.1 sound.
