why we cannot apply schrodinger's equation for relativistic particles?

Paul Dirac came up with a relativistic version of the schrodinger equation.

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

i have an explanation but i dont know it's correct or not we prove schrodinder's equation using classical mechanics assuming mass=constant and total energy E=V+P^2/2*m, where v=pot enegry but for motion of a relativistic particle mass cannot remain conatant it will change from position to position i think that's why schrodinger's equation is not applicable am i right @kainui
