CloseI'm new here, so forgive any mistakes, but I haven't found an answer anywhere else.
Every time I try to load a game, such as lcddem, the application crashes and gives this error message:
I have the 2k runtime package installed, but that didn't help. Any suggestions? This happens with any game I try to play...

Hmm, have you tried completely reinstalling RM2k? That text you get in the error is un-decoded text or characters(which were probably Japanese) failed to translate properly.
By the way, if you're talking about RPG Maker 2003, you can't play RPG Maker 2000 games in it. You have to play r2k games from their project folder.
Does this happen for every 2k game you play? Are you launching the games you're playing FROM RPG Maker 2000? 2003?

Essenceblade: The RPG maker came with the game folder, if that makes sense? It looks like this, I click the application to play it, and yes it does happen with every game.
I seem to recall in installing RPG2k3, the installation process got "stuck" on installing fonts- it would freeze/be nonreactive for hours.
Nightowl: I feel like a newbie, but how do you do that?

So you installed RPG Maker 2k / 2k3 from the .exe file within that folder? That may just be the problem, then. It seems your texts are broken or corrupted. You should download the programs from a site, rather than from a folder.
If the installation process got stuck on installing fonts, the .exe file is corrupt, thus disallowing you to see any text.
I'd recommend you completely uninstall both RPG Maker 2003 / 2000 if you installed them from that game folder.
~don't post illegal links, thanks. -mods~
And I would also recommend you reinstall the RTP for 2000 too.
If the problem persists, follow Nightowls method.
Running the program as an admin is simple. When you log on to windows after the boot up, generally you have the option to log on with the administrator account, and user account. Generally, admin accounts are password protected, but not in all cases (My admin account for windows isn't password protected because I'm too lazy to enter a password every time I log on. :P)
Compatibility mode is simple, simply right click on the program (generally on the desktop), and click properties. Go to the third tab that says Compatibility. Tick the box under "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select the highest windows version that appears in the box. For some, it may be Windows 2000, for example. Click Apply, then Ok.
That should do it.

Unfortunately, it still isn't working. I changed the non-unicode language to Japanese, ran the program as an administrator and in compatibility mode, and all I get is this message when I try to run the game by clicking the "RPG_RT" icon within the folder.
Any other suggestions, or am I just out of options? :c When I try to make a project in RPG 2k, it says "project making failure" as well, if that's related. I reinstalled it too...

Hmm, when you make a project in Rm2k, where are you creating it? Try creating it in my documents, then Cut / Pasting it in a folder where you store them.

As for the error you're getting now, I really don't know what's up! Have you installed the RPG Maker 2000 RTP? If it's not that, then I really, really don't know, all my above methods have helped other peoples' problems in relation to RPG Maker 2000(3).
