Crashing on splash
Posted: Sat Jun 02, 2018 12:42 am
I loved this game and have spent hours of my childhood playing it and want nothing more than to just get it working.
It was working on a windows 7 laptop and then I upgraded to windows 10 and it stopped working. Crashed on splash. Tried installing it on a brand new Windows 10 desktop and had the same problem. So I bought it on GOG thinking that it would work better than a cd version and had the same problem. I also tried the EE-Forever method listed here:

I've even tried installing EE on a windows xp virtual machine using EE-forever and GOG installer files and I'm getting the same "crash on splash."
I've spent probably 50-100 hours reading forum after forum post on all the different problems people have with this game but I can't find a fix for "crash on splash".
Windows 10 Home
i5-6400
24 gigs of RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT 730
Any help will be much appreciated. Also, I don't have access to the CD atm so please assume I can only use internet links and my GOG version of my installer.
