Hi

Just bought FOF. Have Vista 64-bit Home Premium. It won't run, even under Windows XP Compatibility mode.

Get an error on this error in Forge of Freedom.exe
i386/chkesp.c Line 42 -
Value of ESP not properly saved across a function call.

Anybody any ideas? Been a big fan of AGEODs AACW but this 2looks" great.

Thats strange. I have the same operating system and it works on FoF. Though when I put my in it didn't auto run, I had to clikc on computer and then click on drive. E. Is it a laptop or a regular computer? And how doesn't it run?

Hi all

Dan of Matrix suggested I re-install with admin rights and set for 32-bit compatibility. So I de-installed, ran the install again in Windows XP (SP2) mode and run as administrator. Everything worked fine. It sets everything subsequent to run in the same way, including the .exe called by the autorun.

All I need now is to work out how to change the screen resolution. 1024x760 on a 24" screen sucks...

Cheers

Grahame
