Works great for me, I'm using the same build. What does the error say?

I managed to get it to boot but only in 32bit mode (im running 64bit beta 1) once it reaches the menu screen itr crashes says 'far cry has stopped working'.

It wont load at all in 64bit mode just get black screen and then have to ctrl alt del...

ive tried using patch 1.2 and 1.2.1 same results...

I had the same problem. Run it in vista compatibility mode and it will run

Try this

I saw another post from a user named Omni whom I shall quote

"For those having problems try this: To get the 64-bit .exe file working please copy the “lang.ini”, “paul.dll” and “unicows.dll” from the Bin32 folder into the Bin64 folder. After that you will be able to launch Crysis from the 64-bit directory. "

... although I'm having issues installing the damn thing (even as admin and using the compatability modes)... it hangs when "copying new files)...

update your drivers

Update to the latest direct x, this sometimes help.. (yes, this include dx10)

yer no worries - I'm a bit of a techie and tend to keep up to date with my drivers.

sorted now anyway - strangely, it was AVAST that was blocking the install. disabled the AV and Crysis installed a treat! weird how i had no issues with any other software. cheers anyway.

Why wont it install

hey i cant even get it to install it says configuring os and it just stops there iv played this game many time on xp and vista but this is just bull **** i cant get IT TO INSTALL COULD YOU HELP ME PLZ!

 

[lexluther]

Ok - I'm still using the Win7 RC ver and there was early posts about issues with installing software pior some patch\update. The issue I had was where the Anti-Virus software had not installed correctly (installed prior the Win7 patch\update) and was blocking Crysis from installing (strange as the AV was running\updating and other games had installed ok...).

So....

• Ensure there are no traces of the game on your c:\
• Disconnect you pc from its internet connection.
• Uninstall your Anti-Virus and reboot.
• Try installing Crysis again.
• If all ok, re-install your AV software and update it (ethernet cable back in now of course).

And you can just try it to install it using Windows Vista or Windows XP compatibility mode, which some times can help.

How I got it to work

I was getting the black screen hang at start up too. I just found the Crysis.exe file in the Bin64 folder and changed it to Vista (Service Pack 2) compatibility mode. Works like a charm.
