I strongly suggest you delete the game (and keep trying). You are not playing the most recent versions and are hoping to do something that is waaaay to outdated.   Then, if you realize that you are doing something completely silly. Try, the Gruntmonds edition. This version works on windows 10 for certain (seeing as how I could play it in some of my recent streams). And if you have windows 11. My condolences. But I am sure it will work there as well.

You may need to tell us if you are trying to play the vanilla game, gruntmods or dunemaster (or none of the above). The original is not likely to work straigh away. Gruntmods (which it is the original game, not talking on alternatives like open Ra or anything) has patches to make the game works on modern systems, such as windows 11. Dunemaster, the same, it is also the original game, and also patched with very similar stuff. Usually gruntmods is more focused on single player and dunemaster on multi, but it is possible to play multi in gruntmods or single player in dunemaster. So, whatever version you were trying to play, try to get the other one. Sometimes for some people one version crash constatly and after switching to the other don´t and viceversa. I don´t know which one you have issues, so I will place both. Gruntmods can be obtained here: https://gruntmods.com/dune_2000_gruntmods_edition/ And dunemaster all in one installer (includes many custom campaigns and missions) here: https://forum.dune2k.com/topic/26900-dune-2000-all-in-one-installer/ This video explains what to do on both gruntmods, dunemaster, configurations and other things in case you need it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOPet1VtwS8

I thought, "future", new devices, new knowledge etc would improve something.  But instead dune keeps crashing, and the more I try to play it, the more it crashes. Don't search the problem at customer side, search it in your knowledge and the program. It's annoying. 20 years ago dune ran stable! What did 20 years improve...? Now first a moderator will moderate my topic, and he is for sure going to block my post. I'm sure that my idea to say "make things better" is not going conform with modern mindsets. Well, if it will go that way, I can also delete the game.

Oh, that's nice! There's actually an official rerelease of the soundtrack of Cryo's Dune now; Stéphane Picq remastered Spice Opera, and, by popular request, threw in high quality rerecording of all the original game tracks as bonus disc https://stphanepicq.bandcamp.com/album/dune-spice-opera-2024-remaster-lp  

22 years later. Sorry for bringing this up. But I am curious as of how to get this one through the intended means.
