Win 2k game patch.
I've heard there's a patch which allows to run games such as System Shock 2, which crashes under w2k (using Direct X 8).
Anyone knows where to download it?

I don't agree. Both Housenet and me have proposed ways that may well have worked to solve the question. Both comments will make Windows 2000 run certain apps better, so I suggest a FORCE ACCEPT with SPLIT (100 for Housenet and 100 for me).

* hit Start -> Run... -> type in CMD and press OK
* type in CD \WINNT\APPPATCH and hit return
* type in REGSVR32 SLAYERUI.DLL and hit return
* you can close the Command Prompt window
* in the start menu, right-click on the entry which you use to start the game, and choose properties
* you should now have a new tab called "Compatibility", where you can select "Windows 95 Compatibility layer"
This may help. If it doesn't, there may be an application-specific patch at the company's home page which sells the game.
