I tried to install the game on my winxp machine, installed all redist, tried starting through with every .exe, i run a gtx570 with a gtx285 as a physx card, but whenever i try to run the game in windows XP SP3 (cleaninstall + redist), I get the following error:

"ShippingPC-BmGame.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point InitializeCriticalSectionEx couldt not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll"

When I delete galaxy.dll (I config with the shortcut, but start the game with ShippingPC-BmGame.exe (tried all other .exe´s too), it then spits out the galaxy.dll is missing. Any chance this just natively works on XP again one day? Yes it was installed as a backup offline installer.

It seems that galaxy.dll breaks compatability with many games on WinXp..

Maybe this thread can help you find a solution. A user has reported fixing some games. More information here:
