Windows 7 - Command and Conquer generals...

after i put it under compatibility mode, and installed all the updates, and made sure my driver was updated, my error message updated itself, becuase b4 it i was getting the error message that GIGN1987 was getting now another one. ( i posted it, please check it out) any other suggestion?

I update the graphic driver to the latest version, update of directx end with message that a newer version instaled. I have this patch:

I copy it to the instalation folder, set a compatibility mode to the patch file with "run as administrator" and i aplly the patch.


I copy only exe file and game run thanks everyone.

Windows 7 ships with version 11 of Directrix, There is no need to install an older version unless a game calls for It, You would then download version 9.0c

You can download it here:

you use a xp mode or compatibility mode to the win xp 3. I patch the game, overwrite the exe file and set comaptibility mode to xp sp 3

what? can u make the steps easier?

1. Unistall the game and delete all folders about it. Clean registry with some registry cleaner. Restart comupter.
2. Install the game normaly running setup program.
3. Copy the patch into game instalation directory.
4. Use the patch v1.08 with next compatibity settings: Run in compatible mode with xp3. Run as administrator.
5. After the patch is succesfuly apllied, copy only exe file and owerwrite it.
6. The game should run.

Well Im uninstalling to try it the way posted above, but has anyone tried zero hour? Im going to try and follow the steps above for it but I would like to know if there is any additional steps required.

I wou;d uninsatll using RevoUinstaller

Download Revo Uninstaller Freeware - Free and Full Download

Um Reghakr I think you missunderstood me. Zero Hour is the name of the expansion pack to the game in question. Not sime uninstallation nethod.

However I have tried the steps listed by GIGN1987 with no luck! Also I would like to ask what is the point of overwriting the exe with itself?

I was just saying to use RevoUinstaller when this was posted
