There are many reasons why this happen...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the reason is because your old game is not compatible with dual processors setting, especially games by Eidos Entertainments. My favorite old game - Thief, The Dark Project, have an error every time i run it. This error always occurred after i have upgraded my computer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, after i have made some settings on my PC, this problem was solved. If you have the same problem, please try the solution below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="fullpost"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 - Install and run game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 - When the game's main menu appeared, press shortcut Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open "Windows Task Manager" quickly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_62qVo08QpUI/SRPeQajFGRI/AAAAAAAAAIs/9rQF0LqFpmw/s1600-h/thief1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 256px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_62qVo08QpUI/SRPeQajFGRI/AAAAAAAAAIs/9rQF0LqFpmw/s320/thief1.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5265796762911971602" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3 - Find the task of your game program.
