azzro10 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 wat exactly do u mean by running vista as xp n y? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea1307 Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 as i said this doesnt exactly pertain to autocad. I bought a couple games that said they would run on xp and vista, they work fine on my work computer which is xp pro and they give the error that the games are not supported by my operating system when i try to run them on my home laptop which has vista on it. I think there is a compatibility mode or something to make it run like xp or am i totally wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorg Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I wish! Im sick of Vista64 i need to downgrade back to XPPRO.. which would actually be an upgrade Compatibility mode is seriously flawed too. Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea1307 Posted June 25, 2009 Author Share Posted June 25, 2009 yea, after posting this last night i played arounf with it and found a compatibility mode that you used on each application but not on the computer as a whole, still couldnt get it working. One of my games says i need flash 9, which isnt avaliable for download and i have flash 10. seems like these games were a waste of money...

29xthefun Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 See if the games have any patchs as well. Sometimes this is sorted out with a patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
