You need to locate that file. I had a similar problem w/WCP:SOps. I
cant remember the site I downloaded the file from. But try doing a
search on "glide2x.dll".

Thanx for the Hint.
If you still had that file, you could send it to me via email? (I already
tried to google for "glide2x.dll", but I did not get a good download site -
but I'll try again)

Try the Windows 2000 patch
ftp://blacklance.org/pub/cic/wcp/prophecy_win2k.zip

Chris Reid                                            Wing Commander CIC
Chri...@wcnews.com                               http://www.wcnews.com

Or the windows 95/98 compatibility mode

I just realized that the original poster said Win2k _PRO_.
Not standard. In that case there most likely will be no way to get it to 
run. A friend of mine as all sorts of problems with the pro version and 
games that run on normal Win2000.

I'm pretty sure that there doesn't exist any win2k standard. They called it
pro so people didn't think it was for home users.

It'll run, but it will crash constantly even in win95 or win98
compatibility mode.
