I got this new laptop with Windows Vista, and it works perfectly fine with me. But there was a time where I had to re-install Act of War : High Treason in particular because at some point, the game kept carshing and some pop=ups in french kept coming.

Other than that, I really don't know what else can be going wrong. sad.gif

Wootz.....1st post, lemme look for the introduction section! Lolz biggrin.gif

EDIT: Nvm, couldn't find it! =X

FIX - ACT OF WAR, Direct Action. Vista 64

Could not get to work on Vista then I found this link that put me on the right Track
http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=667241

Unlike they running on 3 GIG of RAM, I had to removed two of the 4 so it was using only 2 GIG of RAM and the game finnaly ran. (Just have to put the other 2 GIG back in later) It still would not run with 3 GIG for me Running Vista, 64 bit and 32 bit systems (put on two PC's with Core 2 Quad Processors)

Seams to me like there should be a Registry tweak around this? But I wanted to get this out to help the emormose amount of people that have been trying all kinds of things to no avail to get this game running on Vista.

Also this site is the only active one I have found for help, tweaks, patches etc for Act Of War games http://actofwar.filefront.com/

Hey you don't have to physically remove any RAM just use msconfig to limit the ram I got it to 2607 or 2 gigs and 607 megs
I'm using windows 7 64-bit but there shouldn't be any diff XD just open start search for msconfig (don't be lazy put the whole name in there don't shorten XD or you won't find anything) click it go to boot tab then click where it says advanced options check mark the box where it says max memory then change to 2607 I found this while browsing forums like this one then I just kept changing the about of max ram till I found the limit XD er well close to the limit
