Cannot start MW2

Post by Skaarjkralle »

Hoi!
I encouter the following problem. I have successfully downloaded and installed MW2. But each time I insert the CD, I get this message:

create process ==0; error code:2

What is that about? How can I get the game to work?
Thank you!

Hello Skaarjkralle, and welcome to mech2.org!

Please try to install your game using MechVM. It is linked in my signature. Please reply if you keep having problems.

Glad to be here :D Thank you for your reply. I have downloaded MechVM and installed it. I hope, I did that correctly. Then I have followed the instructions ( it is slightly difficult for me, I am no native speaker of English). MechVm definitely did do something to my Mech2. It now wants to start in the Dosbox, but then returns to the desktop. Maybe the installation source I have is faulty, since I downloaded it and do not have any original CD.
Could this be the reason?

Gruß, Skaarjkralle
