    Compatibility mode maybe?

    Currently going through and installing the games on Windows 7 now. What I have so far:

    Fallout3: Installed fine. Ran great for about 20 minutes.
    Problems: 1. Graphics were...in a word...weird. Graphics were blocky, but the facial features were better defined than when running on XP. Boosted the settings but had the same issues.
    2. While the game was still running...and runing jus fine...I got a pop-up error box stating that Fallout3 had stopped running and windows was trying to determine why...but it was still running and still responding to keyboard/mouse commands.

    Mass Effect: This is the most disheartening, since it is my favorite game right now.
    Problem: Will not install. Gets to a point and says it cannot open a particular file.
    Attempted solutions: Run as administrator: No Luck.

    Any help with ME from those who succesfully installed it would be greatly appreciated. I will post updates as I try installing/running more.

    Next attempt to install...failed at the same file.
    Problem:
    Still not installing...gets to a point and stops.
    I copied the disk to my hdd so I could run it from there as admin. It got to the same point as when installing from disk and stopped.
    The Error: The error box says:
    Error opening file for writing
    C:\Program Files\Mass Effect\saferun.dll

    I notice you mentioned you tried running as administrator, however, have you tried changing the exe's to run in compatibility mode?

    For instance, with Mass Effect, the files you copied to your HDD would include a setup file, correct? Try right-clicking on "setup.exe" and select properties. Then go to the compatibility tab, and try to run it in compatibility with maybe XP SP3 or even Vista SP2 (on top of running as admin).

    Hope this helps, let me know if you've already tried this or not.

    Windows 7 64-bit RC

    Working:
    Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning - absolutely not one issue with the game, perfection!

    Not working:
    Fallout 3 - Freezes after playing for so long, ive looked online for a solution, no avail. If anyone has tips please shed some light.

    Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2 - this one id love to get working, i really want to play it badly, it does the exact same thing as fallout 3. I can play it for so long, and then bam, it freezes. My PC is more than strong enough to run the games at max, yet i freeze randomly. Music still plays, sounds etc, the screen is just frozen and locked. Even in vent i can still talk to people.. its strange.. Anything i can try? (I can't run Warhammer 40k as admin, because its in steam for some lame reason. Any way to take it out of steam?)
