Hi,
I just bought thief II for my winXP sp3, dual core PC.
I have nvidia geoforce 8500GT.
THief I installs fine but thief II doesnt.
As soon I hit a key during movie scenes on load it hangs or MS error popup comes up.
IF I just load the game and then let ot run then I get an MS error anyway.
I had a look at this and

Game Stops Responding (Hangs) or Quits Unexpectedly When Introductory Video Clip Is Played
1. Download and install the indeo 5 codec - Found here
2. Click start, then run and type the following " regsvr32 ir50_32.dll "
Still same problem.
TRied
regsvr32 "d:\program files\thief2\lgvid.ax" and
Choose 'set afinity'
Choose to use only one core instead of two (clear the checkbox for CPU 1).
STill same problem.
I might have to take this back as I am stuck on what to do.
