RM2K(3) games don't work on Windows 7

It works! But here's what happens:
1. Buttons don't work. Left and right clicks are equivalent to pressing the up arrow button.
2. Using scale2x in windowed mode then switching to fullscreen gives the same error.

Double post. Arghhh.

RM2K(3) games don't work on Windows 7

How do I play in Windowed mode? The game starts in fullscreen by default. I tried playing with both integrated graphics and my nvidia one and it works on neither. DirectX also has a component called DirectDraw, which probably is incompatible with the game. Since installing an older DirectX seems to be the easiest option I'll try that first and see.

EDIT: Nope T_T

RM2K(3) games don't work on Windows 7

Crap... I have no idea how to deal with this then. All I know is updating and rolling back the driver, the latter not being possible because this thing is new.

My new comp just loves to double post.

RM2K(3) games don't work on Windows 7

Installing an older version might probably do it, since the one I have is in-built and probably works well only with programs compatible with Win7. Thanks, I'll try that.

RM2K(3) games don't work on Windows 7

Just got a new system which uses Windows 7 (64-bit), I tried running RM2k(3) games and got the error:


This seems to have something to do with DirectX. I have DirectX and running dxdiag detected no problems. I tried compatibility and stuff but obviously still got the same error. Any help regarding this is much appreciated.
Thanks.

I guess I should replay that.. never really got into it(!)
Like I said, it gets better as it goes on. The first episode is pretty weak, it really only serves as an introduction. There's a lot of foreshadowing too.

It was really good until episode 3. Episode 4 was long, 5 and 6 just dragged on and on. The climax was worth it though. Kind of reminded me of Memento for some reason (fake memories, no idea who to trust, etc. etc.). The best parts for me were the Plunges. Just awesome.

What are you thinking about right now?

Just saw Hostel and I'm thinking that's one of the best thrillers I've seen.
