Hasse Wind 46 Posted December 6, 2010 I'm using Windows 7 and have had no trouble with OFF. Have you tried any compatibility settings when you install it, just in case? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Olham 164 Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) When you can beat Windows, you can beat anything, Slartibartfast! PS: has Win 7 a possibility to fly OFF in Windows XP mode, perchance? Edited December 6, 2010 by Olham Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hasse Wind 46 Posted December 6, 2010 Win 7 does have XP compatibility mode (just like Vista) but I have never used it for OFF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olham 164 Posted December 6, 2010 I also didn't need it - just thought if it might help Slarti. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Burning Beard 14 Posted December 6, 2010 I had some trouble with it, which was caused by using a "no cd crack" for CFS3. If you used such a creature make sure you get it out. It will screw up all sorts for things randomly on install, including the maps. The problem I had was it was still in CFS3, so if you have other installs make sure it is eliminated from those also. When reinstalling make sure you have taken out the old user files, they are not in the same place as they were in XP so you will have to search for them (make sure you have show hidden files). Anyhoo, that is what caused the problem for me, I had not used the "no cd crack" until just before upgrading to Win7, and only did it then on a whim. Go figure huh? By the way it will also screw up the ability to upgrade your vid drivers. Beard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
