Supreme Commander

[phantom]

I'm trying to get this game (Supreme Commander) working in Windows
2000 Professional SP4. As you may know, it only supports Windows XP
SP2. There is no way I would ever put Windows XP on this computer, and
SP2 is even worse than that. Is there any way I can get the functions
it requires from XP into 2000 to get this game to work? I heard a
similar thing has been done with Halo 2, getting it to work on XP
instead of just Vista.

The first error I have so far to attempt to overcome is:

SupremeCommander.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The proceure entry point getaddrinfo could not be located in the
dynamic link library WS2_32.dll.


I heard this could be fixed by installing the unsupported IPV6 for
Windows 2000 from Microsoft, but the installer for it will not install
it on anything besides SP1, and I have SP4. My Windows 2000 CD doesn't
even install SP1; it starts at SP2.

Scratch that. I seem to have figured it out, although I haven't tested
it completely (I got into the game, but I'm waiting for a dual core
processor before I really play it).

My solution's source: http://72.32.205.162/forum/showthread.php?page=9
And I'll mirror that download on my own site:

Solution will not work with patches beyond 1.0.3223.
