Win 7 .91 Full install will not run on win7 64bit

sg-mac · 06-09-2010, 01:35 PM

" The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running....."
that is the abriviated message I get when trying to install the .917 full installer. This is a clean install of BF2 > patch141 > patch 150 > PR won't run so here I am. I have tried running the installer in XP comp mode and as admin. Still no go.

any help would be great

Thanks

Welcome to the forums. Did you run the patches as administrator as well?

This is for both of you:

Just for troubleshooting purposes, create a new user account and try to run the installer again. If the error still occurs, try this:

the problem isnt that it is corrupted the prblem is that the installer is not ableto run on win 7 because of the bit version of the OS

64-bit Windows is fully capable of running 32-bit apps. Some 32-bit apps even perform better when they're ran in a 64-bit environment than in a 32-bit. So if the installer throws a message saying the file is not compatible it's not due to bit version of the Windows.

The reason can be (but is not limited to) corrupted component in Windows or corrupted installer file.
