06. 02. 2011 05:12

JBtje	so... in order to play NF, u need to use the compatibility mode of windows xp sp3 (at least, with that I used to be able to play). But what do you have to do to make this *** game to work on a windows XP machine? Who can help me on this? Some more info: - Windows XP PRO - All available updates r installed - SP3 is installed - all .net frameworks are installed - 6800xt Graphic card (used to play with this pc w/o problems 4 year ago) - 2.8 Ghz single core Intel 4 Greetz, JB

JBtje	heya and thanks for the reply :) I went to the NF install dir, opened up HS dir and executed HSUpdate.exe (no errors, all went fine) Than started NF again, saw the HSUpdate again and as soon as the black screen of NF itself shows up, it crashes (same error). In the meanwhile I checked wehrever I installed all drivers, and yes i did. Anything else I can check for? JB

JBtje	Hey, thanx for the reply. Too bad :( exactly the same error, at exactly the same moment (after Hackshield is gone and the black screen appears) Is there any other setting on my computer, that disallows NF to get information from my pc, to turn off? Also running in Admin mode (even thought I'm admin on my own account already) doesn't help... Hope someone can help :) JB p.s. I added: Enfus updater, NF itself and the loaded to be excluded from DEP.

DeadEye1989	It's Vista/7 that really need the comp. mode. XP should run fine on it's own. http://www.navyfield.com/board/view.asp?Num=182089&Sort=E09&Order=re_upday&PageSize=20&Page=1&Ctg_1=&Ctg_2=&Ctg_3= Follow the steps there and see if it keeps crashing on you.

devildog8	are you asking how to do compatability mode? easy right click your NF launcher icon, goto properties, click compatabilty tab, check the box for compatability, and check box for run as admin below it this should work and you shouldnt have any more issues, well not loading issues anyways
