Battlefront 2 Crashes upon launch

[Xerexce]

So, when I start the game on steam, the game opens. But, then the screen goes black. Then it kinda flashes between a black and a lighter black screen until it shows my desktop between the last flash and finally the game closes and boots me back to my desktop. In the bottom right, (where the hidden icons are) a little yellow triangle with an exclamation mark appears. It stays for awhile after the game crashes and I can't interact with it. Once I was able to see the name of it, if I can remember, it said windows task error.

I have tried almost every solution and nothing works, enabling the sound mixer, running in compatibilty mode, running as admin, and plugging in a mic. None of these work. I miss this game so much and used to play it constantly. I have windows 10 as my operating system. Does anyone know a fix?

Edit:
Alright I've made progress! I decided to go back and remove all solutions i've tried before and instead I ran it in compatiblility mode for windows vista. The screen still flashes, but now, it changes the resolution of my desktop. The game doesn't close, but instead stops responding. The little triangle still pops up tho. The only way to close the game is to end the task through the task manager.

enable stereo mix

How to Enable Stereo Mix:
Start > Control Panel > Sound > Recording tab > If you don't see Stereo Mix, right click and select Show Disabled Devices > Enable Stereo Mix
(If you still don't see Stereo Mix, try to plug in a mic and enable it)

if plugging in a mic or headphones into the mic port does not make Stereo Mix show up, try downloading:

run as admin;
go to right click on the entire SWBF2 folder (located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common) and going to:
Properties > Security > Edit > Choose your User > give it full permissions by clicking the Allow on everything there > Apply. > Advanced > Add Permissions if you like > at the top change OWNER to your main User. > hit Apply. > then go back to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common > click SWBF2 > GameData > right click on SWBF2 > at the top it should say Run as Administrator, try to run it that way, if that doesn't help, right click again > go to Properties > Compatibility > Run the program in Compatibility Mode. In Security make sure you have admin rights there also, simply go to security and check. click Edit to change Permissions, click Advanced to change Owner and more Permissions just like before with the SWBF2 folder.

delete vidmode

(vidmode is located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\DATA\_LVL_PC )

plug something into microphone port

if your game only crashes on a certain map, go to: Library > right click SWBF2 > Properties > Local Files > Verify Game Cache
(this removes mods, etc btw if you have any)

if your game crashes on a modded map/etc uninstall it and reinstall.

This is all very helpful and there is alot of info here, but, I have used all of these methods before. None seem to work. I might just have to go back to playing it on the ps2. Thank you for your help tho (:
