I cannot run RCT2 in Win 8 it either just auto exits or will not initialize graphics. I am running Win 8 home (it sucks but the pnly pc's in my price range were win 8 and it was cheaper than replacing the motherboard in my old tower). I have tried multiple combinations of compatibility mode. Any ideas?

I'm also having problems. It keeps saying failed to initialize graphics. Could it because I am running through HDMI? I bought this off GoG because with it saying Windows 8, I thought it'd run without problems.
