well, as embarrassed as I am to say this, I'm trying to run AH2 on windows 98, but when i try to open the window, I get this.

This program has performed an illegal operation
and will be shut down

If the problem persists, contact the program vendor

People run a lot of gaming programs on WIn98 due to the tiny amount of system resources the OS uses. However, your machine is lacking in every place listed. I have extremely high doubts that the game would run even if you could get the rest of the problems out of the way.
