SFC on Vista
« on: December 21, 2010, 09:43:53 pm »
I am trying to figure out how to successfully install and then play SFC 1 and SFC 2 on a 64-bit Vista computer.  SFC 3 seems to install and play with no trouble. Has anybody out there figured out how to install and play SFC 1 and 2?  Thank you.

I use vista and sfc2 works no problems though i have not tryed to hook up to multiplayer. I did nothing with the install to make it work. I am told by a freind sfc2 wont run under "w7"  But its working on my crappy home basic version of vista ?
I am not sure what issue your haveing it may be an update that links vista more to w7 i bet?

It's probably been answered elsewhere, but have you tried right-clicking the .exe, going into properties, and try to run it in compatibility mode for XP SP3?

We run an HP "Easy Note" and a 2010 model ACER here on Vista and both happily run SFC 1 multiplayer on LAN with no problems. All the other computers we use operate on Windows ME.
