RCT3 and Windows 10

How can I get RCT3 to work in Windows 10?
All I get is a black screen then a message that Windows had a problem and shut down the game.

Thanks,
Dave

are you running a disc copy or steam version? i just booted up rct3 on my new comp with win10 from steam and all was fine

I suggest a re-install.

I have downloadable from both Steam and Amazon.
Both do the same thing.
My computer is very high end HP h9-1355 PC and has all the latest updates but maybe a few years old.
The video board is an AMD Radeon HD 7770 Ghz. Edition.

Yes, I have reinstalled it many times.

NoLimits 1 & 2 work perfect.
RCT 1 works perfect.

RCT 2 cannot initialize the graphics card and as I said RCT 3 gives me a black screen then I get the Program Stopped Working Error.

Try running it in compatibility mode.

Thank you but I have done that too.

^ I hope you'll be able to play RCT3 someday or in the near future. I know some people say that sucks, but I can find Steelworx construction kits (My all-time fave!) awesome when I want to theme actual coasters.

I an hoping too as well.
My main concern is if RCTW will work.

Why bother? RCTW will be bad

No it will be better. I believe so.

If the game is good or bad is not the issue.
Just getting it to work is the point of this topic.

I did however solve the problem.
I just got out one of my older computers still loaded with Windows XP and a Nvidia video board.
Everything works correctly now.
I already have a console switch so I can still use my same monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

I do have another question but that will be in another post/topic.

Yay case closed.
