Anyone Trying Windows 7 Yet?

[swilson]

Just for fun I tried running GR3 on it and it won't run. I get (sorry, not at home right now) something like unable to find DirectX 9 capabilities. I updated my DirectX and downgraded it and still won't run. I am running it on Sun Virtualbox which might be part of my problem even though I enabled accelerated video.

Did you ever find a solution to that problem? I have DX installed and such, GR3 comes up but the map does not, it has some crazy drawing issues.

The 'upgrade' treadmill rolls on and on...
You can download and preview Win 8 at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/br229516

I run Windows 7 64 bit and I run GR3, GR2AE & GREarth with no issues at all....Have you tried right clicking on the icon and running the program as an administrator?

Mmmmmmm let me rephrase that.

Has anyone found a solution to running GRX via Windows 7 in a Virtual Machine?

Interwarn (storm labs) works (as its not using direct X anything) so I may stick with it if I am going to keep linux on my laptop.
