Hack: Play Halo2 on Windows XP SP2

by Alpesh Nakar

It’s called WOWLoader! Basically a patch by hackers that lets you play Halo2, meant for Windows Vista, on Windows XP SP2.

he latest version of the patch called Wowloader, first introduced at Filefront Forum earlier this week, contains a game setup loader (loader.exe) and a few DLL files like dwmapi.dll, mf.dll, mfplat.dll, wow.dll and xtaskdlg.dll which need to be placed in the directory where Halo 2 is installed. The loader.exe is required to install the game and subsequently launch it everytime. Users have reported to play Halo 2 successfully on Windows XP with Wowloader.
