Ive tried so many techniques on making zero hour work for win7 64-bit.
IT WONT FRICKEN WORK!
Can you guys help me pls. Ive done that thing where you create an "options.ini" text file and fill it with the settings but even after that i still wont work. Ive also changed the shortcut settings to run in XPSP3 compatibility and run as admin and also disabling visual themes.
GAH its so frustrating.

I would see if you had the newest patch available... If having a newer patch doesnt work i would try looking here, here or here |

no it still doesnt work. ive tried all the suggestions on each of those threads. Im starting to think this problem needs to be addressed by EA with a mini patch but i doubt that will ever happen.

Did you re-install the game?... If i can remember right i think i had the same problem on my 32-bit XP desktop. And i cant remember what fixed it... |

That's quite odd, I haven't had any problems with Gen/ZH on either of my computers with Win7 x64; one has Ultimate and the other Home Premium. My opinion would be to uninstall the game, remove all folders in Documents and Program Files (x86) and then install a program entitled CCleaner: http://www.piriform.com/and using the registry cleaning part of the program, remote any references to Gen/ZH. Finally, reinstall Gen/ZH by opening the disk for viewing the files and right-clicking on the installer and telling it to Run as Administrator.

Hey Phe0n1x, I have another issue I have been trying to get addressed for quite a while. It is under "Issue with graphics" in this same forum folder. Could you answer my question as well (sorry for posting in another forum, I just needed to get your attention). Thank-you and have a nice day. |
Controversial statements are the ones that utimately need to be discussed. |
