Hello Igor

--- quote ---
that if I run "winedbg StarCraft.exe" then it fails differently (it is able to
show message box). Trace output from the same thread:

002d:exception in TLS callback
(proc=0x1073d8f8,module=0x10000000,reason=PROCESS_ATTACH,reserved=0)
002d:Call PE DLL (proc=0x10025ae0,module=0x10000000
L"ClientSdk.dll",reason=PROCESS_ATTACH,res=0x1)
...
002d:Call user32.MessageBoxW(00000000,0033f680 L"Game Initialization

Please don't run Blizzard games under a debugger unless you know what you are
doing. There are anti-debugger checks in the startup code.
Besides these software protection related issues with StarCraft are already
known/documented in various tickets.

I still don't get the purpose of this ticket?

Win XP WILL NOT work beyond 1.16.1. Unfortunately, the Installer for 1.18 DOES
NOT tell the User this information; INSTEAD, the 1.18, (StarCraft Anthology),
Installer goes through the ENTIRE installation, AND THEN prevents the game from
Launching.

IMHO this ticket is invalid.
