Are you getting some sort of error message or will it just not end the level?

yes i get some error message about level 9 and how something is wrong with a file

What is the exact error message that you get? It could be something like a scratch on your CD that's stopping the game from reading a file it needs to load the level, or it could be another XP compatibility issue. We need a bit more info to help you.

I recieve this message immediately following "wreck of the diara moria" and the game crashes to the desktop with this error message.

"FATAL: Level 9 (E:\data\living.TR2) requires a new TOMB2.EXE (version 1431010) to run"

Okay, that is the XP issue then...

What exactly did you do to the game before? Did you apply the patches, or put the game in compatibility mode, or both?

I downloaded the 'Tomb Raider Update Files' and the game worked fine up until level 9

I also put it in compatibility mode

Okay... TR2 works fine for me in compatibility mode with no patches applied, but if I take compatibility mode off it gives me that same error. What you can do is to try un-installing the game, and then re-installing it and applying compatibility mode without using the patch and see if that works. Un-installing the game won't delete your saves, but you can copy them out to a different location just in case.
