Same result with the .bat file, nothing changed =/

It probably is a codec conflict. Try lowering the game resolution down to 640x480. If that does not work, the only thing that I can think of is to try uninstalling all of the codecs that you installed on your system, but that is a drastic measure. you could try to run it in a VM, like Virtual PC.

640x480 didn't work. I'll try the codecs/vm solutions later when I'll have more free time.

If I delete the codecs should I leave my pc completely "codecless" or i'll need to reinstall some basic ones at least?

I guess I'll try the virtual pc solution first and see what I get

That is why I was suggesting a VM. If you are not otherwise having codec issues, a VM would avoid any screwups.

Has anyone gotten it to work in Windows 8 64-bit?

Have you tried the installers?

Have you tried the installers?

I tried the GK2 Win version. It says SIERRAW.exe cannot start. Incompatibility with 64bit version. I tried all kinds of compatibility mode, no good.

You will have to run the DOS version in DOSBox. Use this. It will automate the whole process for you.
