    Thanks Microshaft.

    There are known issues with certain makes of PCs as well as which version of Vista you installed.

    Contact the Manufacture Customer Service for more info.

    And finally, some games will not run with Vista.

    if you cant play any games then you need a new motherboard as it sounds outdated plus im running vista and for me it is much better then xp and i can play any game no matter how old or new it is without a single problem

    Heres a link to help people run the game on Vista.



    We don't officially support Vista yet, but this should provide a workaround allowing you to run Fury in Compatibility mode for Windows XP.



    http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-compatibility-mode/



    1. Right click LauncherApp.exe or shortcut to this file.

    2. Select Properties

    3. Select Compatibility tab

    4. Select "Run this program in Compatibility mode"

    5. Select "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)"

    6. Select "Apply"

    7. Run LauncherApp.exe or shortcut

    8. Windows should now let you run Fury if you pass the hardware specs that is ;-)

    I'm with this guy, not a single issue.

    Do go with his advice though, find out what mobo you have, and if poss get an nVidia SLI board, they run great with vista (it's what i have) and absolutely no issues.

    I mean as far as the beta signup when it asks for system specs...

     

    i pass everything except the OS check.

    Right now i'm trying to print out a certificate of completion, running Vista as well. It is giving me all these ridiculous permission grants i'm having to take care of. Alot of the time it feels like Vista is not worth all this work.

    Thank goodness i'll be getting my new computer in three weeks.

    Even with the compatibility for xp I do not get this game to launch in Vista.  Yes, it passes the hardware check but it won't launch for me. I had to boot into XP to launch it.  I submitted a bug report for it that popped up so I'm sure they will get that resolved.

    Motherboard?? It has nothing to do with the motherboard..lol.  Vista is  unstable and hit or miss as far as problems.  Also..the engine for this game  needs a lot of work.  People are experiencing really poor frames on mid to high range rigs.  Game needs a lot of work still..hence pre-beta!

    Works perfectly on Vista x64 here.



    Just need to enable windows xp compatibility to pass the OS check.

          Try disabling the crappy ass UAC in the control panel "user accounts". It was keeping me from launching DAOC.

    LOL Microsoft just keeps stealing ideas from linux and Unix. But doing a piss poor job at implementing it.
