I installed Carnivores 2 for my old PC(Windows 2000) Everything worked fine in the menu. But when I tried loading the map and playing the game the loading bar always got to the end then a window pops up and says "Heap allocation error" and I'm still on the map selection screen.

Can any of you guys tell me what's wrong?

Do you have the Bitmap650826 patch? Cause it helps with those problems on Carnivores 2, Ice Age , and City Scape.

No, would I need the internet to download it? Because my computer doesn't have an internet connection.

Now this may sound a little stupid but how do you upload a patch onto a game from a disk?

You click on the patch with a cd in a cd burner and paste it or copy on to disk.
