Project Reality Forums

I was just wondering if there is goin to be any support for windows 7 wen it comes out I am running the beta but can not play it some can from wat i have heard but i have no such luck just wanted to see wat ppl think

Please go and read the support threads in the tech-support section for windows 7.

PR does work perfectly well at least on 7100RC and more recent builds. TBH its easier to get working well than vista.
Punkbuster works too.

Yup, running on the latest RC and it actually runs a bit better than XP for me

Windows 7 kicks ***. Please do check out the relevant threads - there's been lots of discussion on it, and pretty much everyone is in agreement that it p*sses over Vista .... even though it's not even released yet.

I'm running BF2/PR, 2142, DCS:BlackShark, and ArmA 2, as well as all my 'normal' stuff. The only issue I've had is no drivers for my HP Officejet (yet).

The techies should be able to help you get the game running. That's what they're there for, and a fine job they do too.

Can somebody move this downstairs please

Done Robbie.

ermm mite ba stupid question ppl have mentioned they have got pr running on windows 7 i am assuming they r using the windows xp mode can any please tell me if this is true if not how to get it runnnig on windows 7 its self

It should just run out of the box in Win 7 now, as of RC7100 anyway.

What version are you running of Win 7, should say in the bottom right hand corner.

Yes i have installed it on xp mode in this order uninstalled installed on wondows 7 in this order and i get wat ppl have described before were the load screen comes on flikers and goes back to desktop, I am goin to try to get gpu drivers for windows 7 off nvidia as windows updates have installed them for me.
Further more i have tried the run as administator things that dosent work dnt on auc is or wat ever that is supposed to be I have also tried it in the compatiablity mode for xp a option u can select on the windows 7 properties wen u right click on the icon and no success.

Ok, UAC is situated in User Accounts.

Can you open task manager and make sure that PR doesnt carry on running even when the splash screen disappears

I have tried fc2 not the game but benchmark, benchmark works but not tried the game I am installing arma 2 and am gunna try the game so i will see if its just bf2(pr). Also I am wondering if my drivers could be the problem i cant install my cpu drivers because it says my cd rom isnt supported by this operating system I have managed to install all the nvidia drivers, bus ,networking, display and some others the drivers if i remember correctly the cpu is for cool and quiet dnt no if this could be the problem.

can i just check the direct x u guys r using do i have to have dx9 installed coz i have 11 ob with windows 7

ok just installed Windows 7 on my comp
Evaluation Copy. Build 7100

try to install my Gfx card driver and its not on the list for windows 7
was this a bad idea gettin windows 7 or is there a way round this?

p.s cnt install bf2

Mine worked fine and installed bf2 fine with no specific driver, but I installed one after. Just download the latest one, restart the PC then run as admin should work. Had the same problem as you, but restart fixed it.
