You need to enable compatibillity mode to run RS in XP.

so right click on the RS short cut on your desktop or where ever the exe file is and then click properties, then click compatibillity, you need to check the box to get it to run.

      No Rainbow Six game or expansion pack prior to Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield works with Windows XP. Sad

Timerek,

The problem you have is that you have rommel corruption, this can occur if you download a lot of maps for rogue spear or sometimes for no reason at all. In either case go to www.team-majestic.com and download "Rommelfix", thats you sorted.

Anyone that cannot run a rainbow six prior to R6-3 on windows XP needs to set the games in compatibility mode. To do this, find the game, right click on the icon and select compatibility, then set compatibility to windows 98.

Remember, R6 games (aside R6-3) were all made prior to winXP, therefore they were never designed to.

As a footnote, Urban Ops has some issues with XP service pack 2 and might not work in any case.

Hi, hope somebody could give me some info please.
Just bought the original R6 pack, and i'm having similar problems as above.
the instalaion was succesful can start the games with no problem even without CD in the drive. where it fails is; when I move my mouse everything surrounding the cursor goes blur, well maybe part of the game (I don't think so) and when I start a mission the whole screen is jumping, so much that you get dizzy watching it.
Downloaded patches, set the compatibily mode to 95 than 98, but nothing.....
also tried to set a higher res than 680x480 but won't change.

I'm using an AMD FX-55 on a nforce based mobo
1024MB ram and a GF6800GT
Win XP SP2

Hey guys,
When I get to my customers house I will try both the setup and the game icon with comp. mode. He says setup is taking forever. Finally got through it but graphics are corrupt (main menu is FUBAR) I am thinking a driver issue. GF 5500 256M AGP XP Pro sp2 nf3-250 chipset 1Gb RAM. Are these all OpenGL games? Thanks

Hi!
It's possibly been asked before, but is there ANY way to get rid of the menu mouse lag in RS under XP? (You know, when you click something in the menu (in the pre mission planning phase, like assinging operatives or switching floors in the map), it drops to 1-2 fps for 2-3 seconds.)
