Commandos under Win2K

jetboy
Can anyone get either Commandos game to run completely under 2000? I've tried running Commandos off the CD, and copying the files to my hard drive without using the installer (and adding a few lines to the registry).

Strange game problem?

mad mike
Gday I am having a strange problem and I hope that someone can help me. When playing games like Baldurs Gate or Nox, the game screen size is larger then the normal windows size. So all the sides of the game are cropped.

Sticky Keys update

simulant
SP1 did not fix the sticky keys/buttons problem on my machines. Anyone else? The SP1 fix list has an item stating that a problem with mouse buttons sticking during fps games was fixed. The DLL they modified was dinput.
