Fatal error when opening PC Game

Hi folks,

I dug an old PC game out of the cupboard today. Last used 18 months ago on desktop XP and now on my Vista laptop.

There are 2 games on one CD which I've installed onto my desktop with no problems.

The first game works ok however the second game cuts out displaying a fatal error on loading. Can anyone decipher this:-

Exception: Access Violation (code 0xc0000005) at address 004D0CD0 in thread 137C

Yeah, I've tried specifying Windows XP within the shortcut properties and just get the same message.
