Problem : Windows 7 64 bit and running FO

(1/2) > >>

Blue:
I got a laptop coming tomorrow and it's Win 7, 64 bit.. Which won't run FO 1, 2 or FOnline. I wasn't aware of this till yesterday when my friend tried to play FOnline. So is there any way to get past this? I haven't used Win 7 before. Does it have a ''program compatibility mode'' option?

chumppi:
Ehm... I have win7 64bit and works without any problems... DX9 mode wont work but otherwise it works. Do you have all drivers etc, directx etc installed?

Opera:
I have Windows 7 64-bit. Fallout 1, Fallout 2 and FOnline works just great.

It does have the "run in compatibility mode" option. Create shortcut for FOnline -> Properties -> Compatibility. (My W7 is in finnish, so I don't know what these titles are exactly in english version). You can try this, but I'm not using this mode myself. So I think you don't have to use this either.

Update your graphics card drivers. Install DirectX. And yeah, what it says when you start the game? Nothing? Error?

trollshade13:
Fonline works here
and about 2 & 1, I use a kind of DX9 hack which works like a charm

although I have to say, sometimes the client crashes on startup (generally need to start 3 times before it works)

Blue:
It acted a little glitchy, it only took 2 trys so far. You guys were right, there's little to no problems, I have no idea what my friends issue was. My laptop rocks, I just got everything transfered and installed most of my games. I'm about to log on FO now. \m/


Edit : My only issue is this funky wide screen and adjusting FO to it, I'll worry about it later.
