D3DWindower problems in Windows 7 - Othienka - 08-06-2011 I remember using it in XP/Vista with no problems [yeah, Vista moving one], but I just can't manage to make it work now with Windows 7 [stupid compatibility modes :angry:]. Does anyone now a way make it work or maybe another application that could make freelancer run in windowed mode without freezing?

There are tons of other applicatons but freelancer "freezes" if you go out of the window: http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=74599 this works for me. D3DWindower problems in Windows 7 - RmJ - 08-08-2011 Windows 7 64 bit Works seamlessly with FL no compatibility modes nothing. Why do some W7's work while others seem to have hassles?

Well Disco Launchpad does work for the windowed mode, but still like all of the other apps I've tried [and the -w command], the window freezes. Seems the only solution for the moment is emulating XP. |
