@Satisfaktion4u It doesn't matter where you install it from. Digital or disc it still the same game, and code. You can download it from Steam, and it works.
Wait hold on...Red Alert 3 Can Support Windows 7!!! I thought Red Alert 3 Didnt work if u had WIndows 7...Can someone please tell me if Red Alert 3 is playable on Windows 7, i want to make sure. Thanks
You can try it out, and see how it runs. RC is still available for free on Microsoft's website. From my experience it runs really fast on older computers then XP.
how come when i try playing games on high res the response time slows down quiet a lot? for example when i move the mouse it takes a while for it to move on screen? i had 7900 GTO' in SLI so i upgraded to a 9800 GTX and still the same problem. could it be my cpu? i have an AMD X2 4600 @ 2.8ghz.
What's your resolution at? Remember the higher the resolution the more processing power it needs from the graphics card. You have to find the sweet spot of the graphics card to play smoothly. Why I miss CRT monitors because you can lower the res without degrading the quality. LCDs you are stuck at a native resolution and you have to find a graphics card to fit that resolution. Example: 1680 x 1050 LCD must have HD 4870 equivalent. Anything lower you will have problems.
either that you are bottlenecking. Remember it's all about the bigger cache in games, faster ram speeds, hard drive speed. Cpu is hardly in use now a days in games. It could be your harddrive or ram. What ram and hard drive do you have?
i have 4gb of OCZ SLI 800mhz ram and a 250gb maxtor sata2 hard drive. cpu is the 2nd most important hardware when it comes to games. without a good cpu the graphics card cant communicate quick enough so it causes the bottleneck.
I doubt it's the cpu since red alert is heavy on GPU usage not CPU. GPU has a faster processing speed then a CPU. I have a 2.6 ghz AMD 5200 and HD Radeon 3870 which is a bit less then yours. Upping the resolution requires more processing power from the GPU not the CPU. So if you are gonna max everything including your screen res then you should either lower the screen res or lower the graphic settings in Red Alert. You can't have both unless you can find a card that handles 1680 x 1050.
I only have a 2.6 ghz cpu too so it cannot be the cpu. GPU, hard drive, and ram are in use when playing a game, but more on GPU, and HD since it has to render everything on the spot.
windows 7 was well taken care of for us consumers............fuck vista too laggy and to many junk files like sp1 to make it as good or not even close to windows 7.
Man, thanks a lot for your videos showing gaming on Windows 7! I was so worried about this topic in general, because I use my computer for gaming more than nothing else.
I would like to know if you can tell me when will the final version of Windows 7 x64 version will come out, and If it's better to test the build 7000 but x84 than waiting for the x64 of it or just testing this x64 build you're using.
I loved this video so much that I tried Windows 7 myself, but I do don't know where to get working sound and VGA drivers. My motherboard is a a K9VGM-V and I have tried many sound drivers, but no luck. Can you give me the links to all the drivers you installed that worked please.
no its request more Processor speed but its actualy runs game faster and smoother and start up time is amazing and use less ram in the beginning its a great OS just wait to the full version comes out and you will see
I've only had minor software installation issues, but it's a 64bit so of course. I've been using this as my main operating system over my Vista SP1. I can play any of my music to my blue tooth or wifi speaker system without needing to transfer to my SD card it's amazing. This OS has a lot more potential then I thought it would.
32 bit is an old architecure used way back in the 80s. 64bit is the future architecture what you see in hardware right now. In other words if you have a 64bit cpu, and use it on a 64bit operating system it will be much faster then that of it's 32 counterpart since it can process instructions faster.
mmm no 16 bit where in 80s the 32bit system come early 1990s windows 3.11 support 32bit systems but windows 3.1 only support 16bit and 8bit ofcores it support all the down to 2bit but thats pretty low and not mutch ram
I keep hearing that the 64bit doesn't work, which is why I hold out on purchasing this game. I wanna play it so bad though.! -_- hmm.

Should say on your Red Alert 3 box or requirements. That's what you have to look at to run the game, and not the OS.
