Troubles with windows 7 ultimate

Recommended Posts

Hi there!

( if there is a tpic alredy on thise , i apologize , i´m kinda new to the forum section of the site )

 

I recently bought a new pc , old one busted , i salvaged the hard drives and mounted on the new one , hoping for the best regarding my musc files , and games ...

I switched from windows XP , to 7 ultimate ( time to update !) and transferred the files ... and that didn´t work , i got myself an iso [ since i borrowed the original cd to my cousin ] , got that working but with some issues ( was the earliest version of the game, text is barely legible , no addon planes , etc etc ) , and once i run the update to october 2008 , when i try t launch the game , i only get a black scren for a second , and nothing happens

 

WHY?

 

has anyone had this type of problem before? what do i do?

 

Thank you for your time reading

You may need to buy the game.

Install from CD. Install fresh from the download nowadays. Don't "borrow" CDs out next time, especially not to "family" lolz.

well , i´m not paying twice for a game i already bought ( and cheaper than the original price ), anyway its cheaper to get the cd sent from his city to mine , the downside its that it takes time , and a perfect summer sunday evening not spent blowing out MiGs seems a waste ... secondly , being a game that old , i don´t think it has anti-piracy software , to detect whter i´m usiing a normal cd or an iso installed program to update ...

If the game doesnt work when i get the cd back ..then what? back to square one

 

Update:

Reading the online store , it says that SF1 wont work on windows 7 nor vista ...then why the hell mine does work without the patches?! , this is madness!!!

SF1 (pre-Oct08) will work with Windows 7, you just have to disable the shaders.
