Windows 7 and IL2... No love?

[SPUDLEY1977]

TX-ECODRAGON, THANKS FOR THE COMPARISONS.

Interestingly the comparison XP: 8800 vs 285 begs more questions. Take a look at the MIN FPS. These two cards have equivalent MIN FPS.

Two possible explanations:

1. At the point where maximum action is taking place it is your CPU that holds back or bottlenecks the 285.

2. Aliens ?

This means that on an LCD with 8400 CPU there is no real gain where it really counts of upgrading from 8800 to 285.

Two Question sir:
A. Are there any differences in visuals between these two cards?
B. Distant horizontal lines : do both cards shimmer/flicker the same?

Thanks

I did time in DFW.....I found the peak heat of Summer rather MILD and relaxing!

I am having terrible trouble getting IL2 to run at all.

I have installed from the dvd using a.exe as setup failed.
I have set IL2fb.exe to Admin and compatability = WindowsXP(SP3)

When I start IL2 to loads to 5% and then stops and drops out to desktop

System:
Core i7
Gigabyte MB
nVidia Geforce GTX 275 with 190.38 driver
850w Pwr
750G HD
6MB ram
Win7(x64)

Could this be video driver related?

Hi

You don't need compatibility mode on at all.

Did you install into a folder outside of the default Programs folder ?

With Vista and Win 7 installs usually make a "Games" folder outside of Programs, what type of IL2 1946 have you got a download or a securom version if your USA ?

Check your listed ram you have it at 6mb not 6gb if im correct ?

Mmm, don't think so... I have a similar setup, Windows 7 x64 with 6GB Ram on a Gigabyte P45 motherboard (Wolfdale 3.33Ghz C2D) with a 275 GTX. I also have the Nvidia 190.38 driver running IL2 with no problems... Audio driver maybe? I am not running in compatibility mode by the way...

All other games work fine?
