Using LEGO Stunt Rally on Windows 2000

Has anyone tried to run LEGO Stunt Rally on windows 2000. When I launch the program the screen goes black, the cursor changes to an hourglass and then I am returned to the desktop. The readme says that the game has not been tested under Windows 2000, but I figured that with Directx 8.1 it should work (right? wrong!). I called tech support and they said to try the Microsoft XP application compatability patch(?), but I haven't had much luck finding it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My son was upset that I couldn't get this working.
Thanks,
Steve

Well, I finally figured this out . I thought I would post it here in case anyone cared. With Win 2K service pack 2 you can add the capability to enable compatibility mode for shortcuts. I added this capability (to learn how search Microsofts web site for compatibility). Then I modified the properties for the Stunt Rally shortcut. I chose the Compatibility tab from the properties dialog and enabled Windows 95 compatibility. I also did this for the other .exe's and .dll's in the base Stunt Rally directory. Then I started the game and it worked

Good luck,
Steve

re: Using LEGO Stunt Rally on Windows 2000

can you explain exactly how you did this? I set the Win 95 compatibility attribute on the Stunt Rally shortcut, but the exes and dlls in the stunt rally directory are not shortcuts, so this option is not available in their properties.
