MOHAA with Windows 7

[ihoprtfnf]

Alright I used to play MOHAA all the time on my olllllld machine. Since then I've had a couple computers that were not meant for games so I hadn't tried to play. Recently I bought a new computer basically just for gaming and had windows 7 installed thinking that would be a good idea. TF2 and Borderlands run great, but MOHAA wont even start. Anyone have any suggestions?

Here are my specs.
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Processor: Intel E5200 Dual Core (2.50 GHz 800MHz)
RAM: 4GB Dual Channel DDR2 800MHz (PC6400) (2 x 2GB)
Video: nVidia GeForce 9400GT 1GB Video Card

Thanks guys.

OK, I have MOHAA running on my Win7 Ultimate x64.

So, what you may have to do is one of the following.

1. Find the MOHAA.exe file and right click, select the compatability tab, tick the box 'Run this program in compatability mode for' and then make sure that XP SP3 is selected.

2. Repeat 1. but at the bottom tick the box that saysselect 'run this program as administrator'. I had to do this for Mass Effect the first time, been fine since. You may want to try undoing the first option if 2. works. It's up to you.

3. Make sure that you have the most recent GPU drivers. Old drivers may cause an issue with OpenGL. Usually you get a console window with an OpenGL error in XP, not sure if Win7 will report the error the same way.

All the best.

Thanks for the response. I just tried that and got the same results. The game starts up in the console and goes to full screen, but a couple seconds later a dialogue box comes up that says...

Medal of Honor Allied Assault has stopped working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

I clicked the ok button and it exits and windows does not present me with a solution.

Perhaps the game didn't install properly? I really want to play MOHAA again dammit.

Aye, try removing it and re-installing. Remember to install the 1.11 patch as well. When you are installing make sure you are an admin on the machine and try installing the game as admin/run the installer under compatability mode?
