When I try to start it it comes up with the message:
The procedure entry point MakeCriticalSectionGlobal could not be located in the dynamic link library kernal32.dll.

Anyone Know how to fix this?

Dragonflare need some more information:

What kind of PC - stats
What OS, patch level, and DX version

[Dragonflare2]

I am using:
a Dell Dimension
256MB of Ram
Intel Pentium 4
64 MB Nvidia GeForce2 MX with TV out

OS: Windows XP Home Edition
DirectX version: 8.1
I don't know how to check a patch level

DirectX version: 8.1


you need directx 9.0B, or it will never work...

Sadly, it still doesn't work :(.
But, thank you.

after research, 2 possibilities :
1) you could have a conflict with one of your drivers...
2) i found someone with exactly same problem for a commercial game... he had a dll file called ddraw.dll (a directx library) that was in his directory. the game was trying to use this dll instead of the correct one that was in the system32 directory. As soon as he deleted the ddraw.dll out of the game directory, POOF!, like magic the game started working perfectly...

Try installing windows service pack and/or patches again, the cause is something to do with windows trying to call a proceedure made for win9x.
