Halo 2 Vista won't work
Posted: 10 Jan 2009, 23:23
I'm using a LEGIT version Vista Business x64.
Here's the story:
I chose to install Halo 2 and play at the same time (It's an option in the installation). When the game was loading, everything was fine. Then I almost got to the main menu when it froze. I ended Halo 2 in task manager and turned off the installer as well. Then I restarted the computer and tried to uninstall the game through Control Panel and got this error:
"This program requires Microsoft Windows Vista or Windows Server 2003"
I kinda freaked because I'm using Vista... Anyways I deleted the game folder and its registries. Now I could reinstall. Did that without playing, and when I tried to run it, it ran! It said there was a LIVE download so I did that and the update didn't want to run. Restarted the game, and there it was! That same error, I don't have Vista. I have a feeling this has to do with the game screwing with my Windows files. I don't know, but if it ran before, then it was either Halo or LIVE.
GODDAMIT
