Darkstone with Windows 2000

backosteel

I recently got Darkstone because I heard it was a sweet game. I got it all installed and ran all of the updates, but it doesn't run right. It runs the first couple of introductory movies, and then closes and takes me back to my desktop.

Deluxe Sims crashes my pc when loading - is it service pack 2?

rosyjo11

The kids finally pestered me into letting them play the sims on my computer. It's been months since they last played it. Put the disc in and chose the resolution then the computer restarted. That's as far as it gets.
