"Leroy Brown!!" wrote in message ... Add: NEED FOR SPEED MOST WANTED: Black Edition (DVD) SIN EPISODES: Emergence F.E.A.R. (Needed taskman to end a lot of unecessary processes in order to run!) Sorry for repeating "F.E.A.R." but I thought the extra little piece of info might help others out! No patches were used in any of the games - straight out of box! All games were played in the 32-bit ver of Vista. Cheers, Lee-roy (Australia) P.S. My PC-Setup: Mobo: ASUS P5GDC-Deluxe (LGA775, Intel 915P+ICH6R, CPU Lock Free, FSB-800 Overclocked) CPU: 3.0GHz Intel P4 630 (O/C'd to 3.6GHz - No conflict with Vista either!) System RAM: Dual Channel - 1GB DDR2 PC4200(533MHz) Generic Video: Expert-Vision GeForce 6600LE (512meg) Sound: Onboard CMI 9880 (Vista has issues with running onboard CMI chips but I have it running nonetheless!) Add *all* of the following: Command and Conquer Generals Command and Conquer Generals: Zero Hour (expansion) (includes 1.04 North American patch) Need For Speed Underground 2 (all from Electronic Arts) Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends (Big Huge Games/Microsoft Game Studios) Only issue is with Zero Hour (original auto-patcher does not work correctly; downloading and running patch externally does work); however, this issue is with Zero Hour itself, and is reproducible in XP as well. Motherboard: ASUS P4C-800E Deluxe CPU: Genuine Intel P4 2.6 GHz w/HyperThreading (Northwood-C/Stock) System RAM: 512 MB x 2 PNY Optima DDR400 (3-3-3-8/Stock) Graphics: ATI All-In-Wonder 9700 Pro 128 MB Graphics Driver: ATI Catalyst Vista RC1 beta Audio: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer Limited Edition Audio Driver: Creative Audigy Vista RC1 beta Network: Onboard (Intel/PRO1000CT) Network Driver: Supplied/included with OS Printer: HP DeskJet 940C (USB) Printer Driver: Supplied/Included with OS Operating System: Windows Vista Ultimate Edition RC1 (build 5600/32-bit) Other Beta Software Installed: Windows Live Messenger 8.1, Microsoft Office 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh Christopher L.

Initially game seems to flicker out the cursor, making it exceptionally
difficult to locate, once located even more difficult to place on button. Once you can locate and select OPTIONS Turn on Custom Cursor: then all runs as smooth and clear as before Vista. Well almost, the sound stutters and gets out of sync from time to time. |
