+Ruggbutt Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Did you install the correct patch? There are two different ones corresponding to the download version and the disc version. Quote

+JediMaster Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 1.12b is the Vista patch, 1.12a is the XP patch. I'm not sure what happens if you use the wrong one, frankly. I'm running 1.12a on my XP machine. Quote

I'm running 1.12a on my XP machine. Sorry, but 1.12b add the compatibility whit Vista from http://lockon.co.uk/?end_pos=9〈=en&a...&page=8#531 Corrected bugs and added features 1.12b # Compatibility with the Windows Vista Operating System.

raf1659 Posted March 22, 2008 Author Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) OK folks, new tests: installed new drivers 93.71, disinstalled FC. Installed cd1: LockOn 1.01 , run, no problem here :) Installed cd2: FC over LockOn, non patches, run, only noise, no image :( Edited March 22, 2008 by raf1659 Quote
BabaLooey Posted April 16, 2008 Posted April 16, 2008 Patches 1.12a and 1.12b differ only in StarForce version - 1.12b is compatible with Vista. However, you can install 1.12b on XP with no problems. As for game not starting, try to run in it in a compatibility mode. Go to FC folder, right click lockon.exe and choose tab Compatibility. Check the option "Run in Comp mode" and choose any from the list until you make it run. Try restarting between switching the modes. A friend of mine with XP+SP2 had to switch this into NT4.0 ! Only that was was working for him. Hope this helps, Babalui Quote
