How to run HALO 2 under Windows XP

[BarryB]

raven, Did you copy the wow.dll from the archive into the same Halo2 directory as the loader.exe, and launch it like so from a command prompt:

loader "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo2\Halo2.exe"

Obviously you'll have to put the the path of your game directory inbetween the quotes, e.g if you installed the game to D: in a folder called Halo 2 then you'd type:

loader "D:\Halo 2\halo2.exe"

That should work if you've copied across all the correct files and installed those two msi programs, the Live installer and the VC++ redistributable.
