Won't start on Vista Ultimate x64

[Black]

Like the title says - it won't start, leaves me with the good old "x has encountered a problem and needs to close".

Thanks for any help.

[WhiteKnight77]

Have you tried to run the game in compatibility mode?

[Black]

Yeah, I tried that, didn't work.

[Fletch]

I don't know if this will work or not but.

Try right clicking on the desktop icon for GR and go to Properties.

Click on Security Tab.

Middle of that page click on Edit.

In Edit assign full control to the all the accounts.

Hit Apply.

[Black]

No luck there either.

I've tried using someone else's options.xml file too, didn't work even with fullscreen and intro set to false.

[Fletch]

Don't know what to tell you then, I am using Vista 64 and it ran on setup for me, no additional tweeking needed.

[Black]

It's working now - I reinstalled the game and patched it to 1.3 instead of 1.4, thanks anyway!

[migryder]

sounds like that OS is going to limit your chances to play a bunch of mods.....you're able to patch to 1.3 but can still play Island Thunder?

Remember to right click and run as admin though or it won't save your key settings and ect.
