I recently bough the Dracula games bundle. So far I've only tried the first one and it won't run on Windows 10 for me. When I click the play button the screen flashes for a second then it immediately crashes. I tried different compatibility settings but nothing seems to work. I don't know what else to try.

I would greatly appreciate any help.

Thanks

I'm not sure if this will reassure you or not, but I'm having the same issue in Windows 11 with Dracula 1 and 2. I bought them with 3, 4, 5 and Origin. I have no issues with 3, 4, 5 and Origin, but 1 and 2 continue to not run no matter what I do.

I posted in another thread that had a working solution for Dracula 1 & 2. I have Windows 11, but I believe the solution should be the same as another poster has Windows 10 and it worked for them.

I can't post a link to it, but attached is a screenshot of my screenshots from that post and the posts themselves.

Thank you. That helped with Dracula 2. However, it didn't work for Dracula The Resurrection. I'm going to restart my PC and retry though. Thank you again.

Update:

Dracula 2 works thanks the previous poster's response, but Dracula Resurrection still won't launch on my Windows 11 PC even after trying what was shown in the images that poster attached.

Another Update:

Recent work deadlines prevent me from updating sooner, but I'm still having no luck with Dracula Resurrection. I got Dracula 2 working thanks to EnsignFs pics. but Resurrection still isn't opening. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey there! I recently got the trilogy on GOG and was having the same issue with 1 not opening no matter what. 2 was fixed by using game.exe and adding an exclusion for it in DEP.
I just got 1 to launch now perfectly. I had to rename the Dracula.exe to fvr_viewer.exe, then remove it and re add it the DEP exclusion list. Hope this helps or works for you!
