He could try running it under Server 2003 mode, or vista mode, or even Win 7 mode.

I was able to get a client crash on launch fixed by changing the client to run in Win XP mode, I launched it and it crashed, I then changed it to run normally but I then deleted it before running it so that CSS would download a replacement client...which was able to run without crashing.

weird, I know... I had already tried to run the game once before after switching to xp mode and then back, but it crashed when running normally so the next time I changed the compatibility mode and deleted it before running the client. When CSS downloaded a replacement client, I think windows assigned the client a "normal mode" or reset something to make the client run properly.

I found that crashes on start up usually involve artwork issues. Many were corrected by uninstalling, cleaning the registry , rebooting and re-installing.

Another trick is to install the game in a compatibility mode. * Right click the installer, select Troubleshoot Compatibility, select The Program Worked in a Previous Version of Windows, then select a mode to install it.
