Starfleet Command-Orion Pirates won't run

Edd 1 · 16 Jul 2011

I was able to install SFC Orion Pirates but while loading the game to run, I get the following message:

Unhandled Exception!
tPerformanceCounter::TimeSinceStart
tThreadPool::Heartbeat
tSfcApp3d::mHeartbeat
tMyApp::mHeartbeat

I'd appreciate any help.

Try running it as Administrator and running it in compatibility mode for Windows 98.

SlasherIT,

Thanks. I give it a try.

Ok.

SlasherIT,
Tried running as administrator and with Win 95/98 compatibility, alas, no luck.
Any other ideas?

SlasherIT,

Thanks for the suggestions. However, I use a dial-up connection and it would take
6-8 hours to download each driver. Is there a faster way?
I have DirectX 11. Isn't that the most

recent vers.

Follow the link, there are some post that may be of use to you.

Wouldn't it be great if Windows 7 could run SFC 1, SFC 2 and SFC 3....
