I'm tring to run a game called trackmania original and it says I need to run
it on any os through win95 - xp sp2 (except NT 4) and it still says that even
when I run it in compatability mode for xp sp2. How can I make it think i'm
running xp sp2?
 
Hi James29,

From the dropdown menu where you chose Windows XP SP2,
try another compatibility option such as Windows 95 / 98.

Compatibility Mode works with many but not all programs.
Check with the game manufacturer about Windows Vista compatibility and
ask other users of that game.

You may need a patch/update or a newer version to run on Windows
Vista.
 
There is a patch. The patch does not work.

Then you should contact the game makers and ask them for a patch that works.
If there's a patch and you can't get the patch to work, "get it to work"
then respond here if it didn't help.

Include system specs please.

I sent the maker an email.

If you want to know the spects of my computer, here they are:

Ram - 4gb DDR2
Processor - AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core 5600 (2.8 ghz)
HDD - 250 GB iSCSI hdd
Graphics - ATi Radeon X1300 pro @ 1280 x 1024
Sound Card - Sigmatel HD 7.1 channel audio CODEC
