the godfather?
The game loads, the 'paramount' intro does not display, the screen stays
black, but you can hear the video. once the video clip ends it takes you to the game menu and the game plays, however none of the video clips play. I've tried all the different compatibility modes. I'm wondering if it has something to do with Nvidia beta drivers not supporting overlays yet???? Or just an incompatibility between this game and Vista Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit (RTM-Retail) AMD 3700+ (754) 2GB Corsair 3200 3-5-3-6 (1gb x2) XFX 7800GS AGP (latest beta build drivers 100.64) X-Fi Xtreme Music (latest beta build drivers 2.13.0001, with latest Alchemy beta) All updates and extras from Windows update/Ultimate extras. Running setup in a 2003 Domain environment with local admin/domain admin/enterprise admin rights. UAC disabled (of course). Steve "bmorenmiami" wrote: anyone get the godfather game to run?

I'm suprised that the game works on your PC at all with onboard video. Its
possibility that Intel's on board video driver for vista is still in it's infancy. It took a few driver versions for the Nvidia driverset to play friendly. Its still in beta though. I've only run into a few games that I can't get working on Vista. I have a feeling that this godfather problem is codec related.......
