Sorry for reopening an old thread but i've looked everywhere to find out how to make DK2 work on my XP Pro SP2: I followed the steps and now I get this message after the movie clips...
Please help.

I doesn't have option "EmulateSlowCPU" in this program, but it's version 4.1 not 3.0, I couldn't find version 3.0 anywhere. Maybe I have this problem because I don't have Windows XP with SP2?
Thanks in advice,
True Rastaman

If you are using Windows 2000 then "EmulateSlowCPU" isn't encluded in the App Compat database included with Windows 200. (It's only in XP/2003) Unless your are privy to internal Microsoft App Database tools then no, you cannot get that option in Windows 2000.
The good news is that "EmulateSlowCPU" isn't required in Windows 2000 because I've played DK/DK2 in Windows 2000 plenty of times.

But I'm using Windows XP Professional Edition. :/ I also know that I doesn't need this option in Windows 2k because I played DK2 on it too.

Hi all.
I am new to this forum, and I registered here with one purpose only; to make dungeon keeper work.
I recently found my old copy of DK II, and I felt an urge to play it. When I wanted to install it, I inserted CD 2 at first, because I want it in Danish. It allows me to BEGIN the install, but at 31% it stops and asks for CD 1. I insert CD 1 and click retry and then, nothing happens.
I'm pretty lost here, I've tried mounting it with both Daemon and Alcohol 120, but neither seems to work, so I really hope that some of you veterans can help me out here.
Thanks in advance!

2. Apply patch 1.7.
(if you during installation get an error message saying "Can't run 16-bit Windows Program. Cannot find file..."
then go to Start - Run... and type regedit. Make sure the following key is disabled (set to 0):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation=0)
3. Install Windows Application Compatibility Toolkit 3.0 (use Google to find it - it's free from Microsoft).
Can any1 tell me how 2 do this whole thing without the patch and with toolkit 4.1, because i cant get toolkit 3.0 or the patch.

okay, plse 4get last posting by me, if any1 was thinking of replying. i was looking at the wrong thing.
My game installs, but when i try 2 run DKeeper2, i get this message ; 'Please insert Key CD-ROM, press OK and restart application'. The only CD Is in 1 of my 2 drives, switching from one 2 the other doesn't work, and i have both windows 98 & Xp on my computer, drives C and D respectively.
Can any1 tell me what is wrong???

hi people- i also have a problem with dungeon keeper 2.
i am no computer expert (at all) and here is my problem-
when i put in disk 2 and press play it comes up with DKII.exe. has a problem. when i put in disk one and click the icon in my start menu it works but the sound is dodgy and sometimes the narrator dude sounds as if he is speaking the same thing twice. then it may run for a bit but then comes up with the same problem as before. Any way of fixing this?
edit- im running on windows xp
