Has anyone had any luck getting Independence War Deluxe to run under XP. I've tried both software and Voodoo 1 & 2 modes with the same results: the game begins to intializes crashes and leaves me back at the desktop.

I'm running an AMD Althon 2400+, with a MSI Nvidia 6600GT-128 and two Canopus Pure Voodoo 2's in SLI with the latest FastVoodoo 4.0 Gold drivers under XP. Sound card is a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz.

Thanks...

how much memory do you have? I have heard that the game wont run if you have more than 512MB Ram..
other than that,try running in win95/98 compatibility mode.

I've tried various compatable modes and adjustments to the Voodoo settings with no success. However I have two 512 meg. strips of memory installed. Is there a work around short of neutering my system?

I'm afraid all you can do is pull one bank of memory from your pc..
