kameleon Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Just disable the UAC and you should be good as gold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistergreen Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Win 7 64 bit and so far things are smooth, yet somehow my fonts are set to the tiny 5pt size and that's all the game ones, from what I type to skills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Boss Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Running fine on W7 64-Bit, UAC is disabled however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanshi Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Been running on windows 7 64bit ultimate for about 3 months now. disable UAC and run game as admin just to ensure all patches go trough and you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricko Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 No problems here either, been running Win7 64 bit since RC. You can get it working without disabling UAC though, I only lowered it a notch to make it stop alerting me when I made changes myself. The biggest issues running with UAC enabled is the fact that you are running 3 separate applications from launch to play. I would advice you to try getting it up and running with UAC enabled if possible, but that's just me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floss Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Works great, no issues whatsoever with one exception. I run enb windowed, and if the window gets at all minimized, or hidden (like the show desktop button), I can't get it back up, and have to force crash the client. Not a major issue, just try not to go all crazy! Also running VMware with win xp through my win 7 box, and it's an easy alt-tab to flip between the two.

Juduzz42 Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Running on Win7 as well no probs "I run enb windowed, and if the window gets at all minimized, or hidden (like the show desktop button), I can't get it back up, and have to force crash the client." Just open up task manager and switch to or alt tab to EnB widow should show up again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just open up task manager and switch to or alt tab to EnB widow should show up again. I'll try the switch to. Alt-tab will highlight the border of where it should be, but it still can't get it up. Needs some GUI Viagra. It looks as if it's trying to restore the window, but just refuses to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slayerman Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Right click on task bar and highlight restore. I have the same issue on Vista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floss Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Right click on task bar and highlight restore. I have the same issue on Vista Also tried that, no dice =/ It's stubborn as hell. It rarely happens, I'm not sure exactly what does it, but normal alt-tabbing between windows doesn't seem to break it, just when it gets 100% minimized. It can "ghost" Aero style, whatever that is called, and be fine, but if that window actually dissapears, poof, can't get it back. Oddly the VM client running net7 through xp is stable as a rock regardless of how much tabbing or minimizing I subject it to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistergreen Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 I have that same problem. If you notice your mouse is stuck in the upper left corner and can't move until you alt-tab out again. I've tried to restore and move but nothing happens requiring to shut down from task manager.

bondct Posted January 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 i have had that happen too... but in xp... the net-7 proxy has crashed when that happens was what I found to be the cause... and then you ctrl alt del to kill the client.exe process to get out of it... i didnt really stop to consider why this happens... but maybe when you minimize it creats a disconnect between the proxy and the client...

The issue that the window get minimized and dont come back up, happens for me also every now and then. A "workaround" is to use the taskmanager, choosing the application (not the process), right-click then "Change to" or whatever its called in english ;-) I also run EnB under Windows 7 64bit Ultimate with UAC enabled, Administrator account disabled. Just set for the Net7Launcher to have it run as administrator. The client.exe within the Earth and Beyond/release folder is set to Win2k compatibility.
