Hey everyone,
I was feeling nostalgic and bought a new copy of Halo 2 for PC. I have not been able to get it to work consistently.
Halo 2 installs fine, however refuses to start at all -- immediately crashing when halo2.exe is run either through the startup program or the application itself. I have tried the obvious steps such as enabling compatibility mode, running as administrator; reinstalling. I also have the latest version of GFWL.
On top of this I have tried downloading an iso of the disk and installing it off there, different orders of installing (such as installing GFWL first then Halo 2 and visa-versa), activating the game, not activating the game and using the GFWL bypass -- none of which has worked.
The strange thing is I have gotten Halo 2 to work twice, only for it to not work again after I turn my computer on and off again.
I know that at this point it is probably a lost cause, however what more do I have left to lose? Does anyone know of any solutions to this? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
