NOX

Okay, no matter what i do i cant get this game to run correctly. i tried downloading the .iso, and ive patched it, done compatibility mode but anytime i run it it locks my whole computer up at the nox screen were my mouse is in the corner and cant move. i then tried downloading the other version that you just get off the internet and putting it together, but now i just get constant .exe errors, in compatibility mode or not dosent make a difference. the No-cd crack .exe actually gets past the opening movie and such before it erros and shuts down. does anyone have any idea what im doing wrong? ive tried everything ive read on google but nothing has worked yet.
