I am running WinXP Pro and I run it without any problems, apart that the screen goes brighter when I run the LE.

i used the compatibilty mode with xp for win98 and it worked but the screen would sometimes spin round really fast so i got rid of xp which when it comes to anything older than the xp operating system seems to behave in a peculiar fashion or just plain not function, so i got rid of xp and went back to win98. Hoorah!

Right click on a shortcut or executable.

Click on the Compatibility tab.

Select your settings.

If the error is with the roomeditor ,try to delete the autosave.prj before .
you need use 16 bits color mode in the windows desktop for the roomeditor.
Can u post your configuration ,please (engine ,video card ...version of drivers )
Both version of xp (home and pro )are able to run the level editor with my config .
p4 1500 ,Ge force 3 ti500,sblive 5.1 on winxp pro.
