As far as I know it does yes (I haven't played it since before upgrading to
SP2), though you may experience VERY slow level loading for which there is a
patch available on tombraiderchronicles.com :)

I installed it and when I went to play it, I got an error and it wouldn't
play. I tried to download the patch but when I went to install it I got an
error and it wouldn't install ...

You will also need to run the patched version in compatability mode.

The only compatability choices it gives me are win 9x and win 2000. No XP,
much less XP SP2 modes.

Try either 9x or 200, one of them will work well :)
