Is 64-bit XP supported?

Hello,

I have tried to run "Operation Winter Storm" demo on my 64-bit Windows XP, and it crashes right away. Is the Panzer Command series compatible with this flavor of Windows? If it is supposed to be, I'll look at my drivers and stuff, otherwise I'
ll try to run it on a regular WinXP box.

Best,
Blazej

Hi Blaze,

Mine runs on 64 bit vista without problems.

Feel free to try updating drivers and so on. However, Windows XP 64-bit is not a supported OS, it has too many odd issues with a number of games. I know some folks have gotten it to work, but it may be that only specific hardware/driver combos support things properly.

Panzer Command works fine in normal XP and Vista as well as in 64-bit Vista.

Actually, I found the problem later last night.  I had to log off, and log back in as an administrator. It seems that running the game from my usual user account (which has lower access rights) was causing the crash.  You may want to confirm this, and describe it in a FAQ or something  :)
