Running CEAW with Vista...

Post by TheHellPatrol »

Although CEAW is not officially supported for Vista i thought i'd post this for those interested:
Installed on a Dell Inspiron Laptop Duo Core 1.73GHz 2GB RAM GeForce GO 7900GS/256MG card.
Installed fine, as with all Vista apps i r-clicked the dd exe. and selected "run as administrator". The difference with CEAW as opposed to other Matrix titles i own(and others) is i had to r-click on the desktop shortcut and select "run as adminstrator" to start my game. If i don't do this it doesn't load. Played a few turns...everything is perfect. No problems here, i hope this helps.[8D]

That does help actually .. had to upgrade (reluctantly) to vista and got UFO ET without checking it was vista compatable ( it is ). Although Vista is a royal pain in backside with its idiot sucurity system.

so just a thanks from us vista sufferers [;)]
sorry for the spelling . English is my main language , I just can't type . and i'm too lazy to edit :)
