    Ad/Change the lines mentioned:

    Include Setup\Locale.zip
    //DrawDll Render3DFX.dll
    DrawDll renderd3d.dll
    //DrawDll RenderOpenGL.dll
    SoundDll Sound.dll
    ScriptDll GSC.dll
    LocaleDLL Locale.dll
    Resolution 1680x1050 <------------------------------------"change this to your monitor maximum resolution"
    enableconsole
    ColorDepth 32
    Anisotropy 2
    ShadowDetail 2
    TextureResolution 0
    DisableLight

    Thanks for this...

    Unfortunately for some reason even after doing this the game crashes as soon as I try to start the game.

    Try this:
    Hitman Collection 4 game bundle includes Hitman1 and 2, Contracts and Blood Money (PC DVD): Amazon.co.uk: PC & Video Games

    I have the 3 in 1 version. :)
    You can get the "steam version".. and look @ the forums if the same problems exist.

    These versions should work on your PC config..

    I think you have the old version which is not updated..
    Good luck :P

    The problem is that game came out in 2000 and thus will have issues working under Windows 7, especially a 64-bit version.

    I suggest you Google the game and see if anyone has got it working under W7 x64 and what they did to make it happen. I had to do a bit of research to get Deus Ex working "properly" under W7 x64 - What Games Are You Playing?

    Perhaps you could do the same with hitman.

    You might also look through here for some suggestions Tips on Troubleshooting Game Issues but being that the game is 11 years old well....

    Hitman: Codename 47 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Good luck.

    Thanks for info...

    I got bloodmoney version and tried it... but I actually do not like the hitman game... it takes too much trial and error and too much walkthrough information for my liking... I like shooter games with more action that you can figure out more easily as you go... so hitman is not for me thanks for all replies :)

    well, it is your choice
    playing the original hitman with cheats is awsome fun though. you should try the hotel level with invisibility. bloodmoney isn't actually that great, rather an anticlimax to the series, but yeah, the games all have a deeper level than just shooting, which can get very annoying at times.
