Games compatibility on Win2k - 03/28/01 08:16 PM

Hello, I'm french and have a little problem with my Win2k Professional (french version of course)...
I can't run games on it !
Half-Life, Unreal, Blood 2 don't work...
The same message each time "doesn't work on win NT"...
Besides, I read on this site that those games work on Win2k. How can you do that ?

I've tried the compatibility program but games still don't work.

Maybe there are differences between Win2k French and American version...

Help me ! I'm sinking...

Have you applied any of the compatibility updates from http://WindowsUpdate.Microsoft.com ?

Those may help solve your problems.

Are there French versions of those games?

Only Half-Life is translated in french.
Unreal and Blood 2 are not.
