Default Patches for Tomb Raider 1 - 5

Hi

I'm huting out the patches which will allow Tomb Raiders 1 - 5 to run on
Windows XP but the sites which offer them is down right now. Could anyone
tell me where else I can get them from please?

Thanks

TR1 works best with GLIDOS, which include a VDM sound driver.
TR2 doesn't need a patch.
TR3, TR3gold, TR4, and TR5 have XP patch versions.
TR6 and later run on XP just fine.

I've noticed that on some systems, the FMV's don't play well
on TR2, TR3, and TR3 gold.

If you can find it, get the 49 release of TR AOD, it includes
a video benchmarking capability.

You don't need patches to run TR2-TR5 on Win XP. Just right click the
executable, Properties>Compatibility>Check Run this program in
compatibility mode for and then select win 98. And that;ll do the
trick.
For TR1 there are two ways out. One is tested and the other is not. You
can use Glidos as stated by the othe member or you can use an emulator
knowna as dosbox. http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/ You might have to
config it a bit.
