Title: SFC CE CD Key Issue Win7 64
Post by: tormato on July 20, 2013, 01:38:32 pm

Hey,

I just downloaded SFC-CE and installed using compatibility for winXP SP3 and using administrator settings.  When I get to the main screen after installing where I'm to input my key, all I get is my computer pinging at me when I go to input the key with no text being input.  Any suggestions?

alt tab out and and back in (hit the windows key if that doesn't work to get to desktop)

I fixed it pretty easily after I thought about it.  Switch the program to run in 640*480 screen resolution under compatibility and I was able to input the CD Key.  Then I quit and switched back to normal.

I'm curious, I have been over these forums for the past couple of days (by the way, it keeps making me re-register every day, says my account does not exist, but that's for another topic...), and  Ican not find where you dl SFC-CE. As a matter of fact I keep seeing everyone upset over it not being released yet... so pray tell, where did you get it from?

Ok, I found it on the market... Purchased it, installed it, several ways now, it will not play campaigns... I am win 7 x64, tried installing and playing it in winxp sp3 mode, it loads, I select campaign and type, it gets to first screen and locks up at maybe 10% loading (Where it says wait for progress bar then click to continue)... I thought this was re-vamped for win 7?  :(
EAW did this non-sense on it's own without me paying 6 bucks for another version of lock up... lol... (I admit,  I wasted more then 6 in the past... once maybe :P)
Love some advise, cheers.
