Windows 7 64bit hating Freelancer issues

[Exploration]

I run Windows 8.1 and had that problem, though a simple reinstall fixed it. I ran the mod installer .Exe as an administrator and run the game exe+launchpad as administrator also. However i found toying about with the compatability modes seemed to fix a couple graphics bugs i had.

-However saying this, Windows 8.1 has been better actually in compatabiltiy with all my other games, especially those which need Games for Windows Live. Had no issues, infact got better FPS since i switched to 8.1. I suspect Windows is getting a bit too advanced for disco on that front, either that or i should have ran the admin stuff first
