Win7 and Sp - Weasel - 01-04-2010

Anyone running 7 with SP? If so, any troubles?


RE: Win7 and Sp - Walrus - 01-04-2010

If I recall correctly, there is a built-in XP environment in 7 where you can happily run anything in XP, while 7 is up in the background as the main OS.

If that is correct, and actually works, that means you should be sweet as even if SP and Win 7 don't mix.

I am waiting for a good while before I change up to 7, that's for sure.

Good luck cheers

I have 7 at work and the XP mode does work, haven't tested SP but I don't see why it shouldn't run.

I have run winmbt and winww2 on win 7 without the xp mode.
The only problem is that the colors and grafics in the menue-screens are mismatched but when I start a battle it runs fine.

Maybe Microsoft fixed their compatibility mode finally then? XP mode didn't work worth a crap in Vista.
