Re: Cant play on windows 7 ?
Same boat as Fester. I installed med gold on Win 7HP 32bit. got past the select faction bit ok but as soon as I picked and tried to move a piece the game crashed. I reckon mtw1 is never going to be officially patched up for modern os and graphics cards despite the years of fans requesting it gets fixed officially.

Some people are able to run MTW on Windows 7, a CTD on a campaign start might be due to your graphics card. What kind do you have?

Hi Drone.
OP Fester got an immediate ctd on campaign select faction and it might be useful to know the specs and grafix card on his system for the benefit of others maybe.
I got past the campaign select fashion crash bit as i got england to load up no probs but it crashed the min i selected an agent piece to move.
Netbook gaming on a 12 inch screen U230 was never gonna be much fun, but with Win7, 2gig ram and a 128mb hd ati3200 dedicated grafix, i figured i was good to go.
med1 sure hates my guts as ive tried all the fixes, button and creditskip with mixed results and ive had that nvidia missing unit prob and the megaslow loading prob.
this game is crying out for an official patch like Fester said.

Not going to happen, but maybe CA/Sega/Activision will hand it over to GOG for fix and release.Originally Posted by Wytchfynder

That's odd, the button fix should have fixed it. Have you tried setting the desktop to 16bit colour?

Re: Cant play on windows 7 ?
Apologies Asai, maybe i shouldve been clearer on the mixed results thing as i was also reffering to other devices i owned. This is the first device with Win7HP and and ati card that ive tried installing med gold on.
That Peter123 guy gets max credit for discovering the button fix and it makes me wonder (though probably not) why CA dont spin up an official patch since theyre still selling the game and more people will increasingly be using Win7 as their OS.
