Windows XP

Windows XP was an Operating System for the PC by Microsoft. It was published in 2002 and is now obsolete, since it is no longer supported with updates.

Windows XP, as well as the older Windows 2000 was released when the Classic-Tomb Raider Games were already on the market. In some cases they are not compatible with it, meaning that the game might crash after being started or not start at all.
