Anyone notice that DD2 doesn't work right on Vista??

Posted: December 7, 2008 at 09:07
I installed and re-installed and re-installed again, but I just don't think that DD2 is compatable with Vista. For one, it has a lag when you're trying to click things- the pointer is slow. Second, when you take the full-screen feature off, and minimize the game and try to maximize/restore it again, it gets stuck and says "Not Responding" or the game crashes, and you can't click on anything :(
 
Playfirst, have any solutions???

That happens to me to but, I didn't get it from playfirst. My games go extreamly slow when there not on full screen and if i mimimize it i have to restart my whole computer because it freezes. I proably just have a bad computer maybe there's something wrong with your game.

I thought it was just me too, buy my bf installed the trial from PF.com on his computer- he has Vista as well- and the same thing happened to him. We have different brand computers, so it's not my brand of computer that's making it un-compatible (sp? grammar?)
 
Maybe it just works better on full screen?

I bought it at Wal-mart too. I installed and un-installed 3 times and not all at once, but it still does the same thing. I don't know-maybe it's the firewall or settings on my computer.

This is weird, but I have a smiliar story but it's FOTG, insted of DD2. I must have tried FOTG, before I figured out how to buy games on line or found this place. So I bought it at Walmat or some where retail.

I have to uninstall and reinstalll it every single time I play, it's the only way I can get it to work.If I just close it down and try to re open it..I get the PF  box telling me my free trial Period is over. It s u c k s "cause I don't have expert in the whole game, and I want to get them, but it's just too much trouble.

Other than that, I love my Vista programs :)

Yeah, I don't generally have problems with Vista (except a few error messages with IE, but that's normal, I guess) and I like the new look and color customization of it. Anyhoo, I think I'll just buy DD2 from Playfirst, and see if it will work properly for me then. Even on the game description under "System Requirements" it says Vista, so it is compatible with it according to that. Hopefully that works, I LOVE DD2 :)
