  1. You´re right. It´s a "Realtek HD Audio" on a new Intel DB75EN Board (onboard-audio). And yes, the sound is crippled. It is stuttering, when using the pulldown-menues (is that the right word in English?), in the loading screen, and in the game there are noises but not the game sound. [uPDATE] It works now. Tested the compatibility-assistant (right-click on the .exe). It recommends to run the demo in Windows XP SP2 mode. A test run (with the assistant in the background) works fine. What I don´t understand: I cancelled the assistant (not using it´s recommendations) and the game runs now fine in normal mode too??? I´ve made no changes in the configuration of the computer so I can´t give a reason or a solution for the problem. It seems to be luck. Thanks for your help Schrullenhaft. (I´m from germany and now I also know the meaning of the word "schrullenhaft", haha, crazy word ... even in german language) [/uPDATE]
  2. Thanks for your reply. Maybe the installer tries to target the program files folder but on a 64-bit Windows that folder is for 64-bit software and the installer has no better idea than to copy the files to the my documents folder. I installed the game in the program files (x86) folder and the game is running. Everything should be fine now but ... I don´t know why this game don´t like me. The sound is crippled ... I waited so long for buying a new computer an at the end it won´t run ... :mad: Any ideas? I have the latest firmware and drivers installed ...
  3. I checked my notebook today (Windows 7 - 32 bit). The installation folder on that machine is "C:\Program Files\Battlefront\Combat Mission Shock Force DEMO". I can run the demo as standard user (without administrator privileges). So what´s the solution for Windows 7 - 64 bit?
  4. OS: Windows 7 - 64 bit When installing software as a standard user, you will have to enter an administrator password to get permission. This is the way I normally install software. After that, i run it as standard user. So I did with the Shock Force demo. The demo chooses the my-documents folder of the administrator-account as standard installation folder. But I am not able to run the demo. After clicking the shortcut it tells me, that the linked exe doesn't exist anymore. I tried to get it to run with administrator privileges (right-clicking on the shortcut) but it still can't find the exe. This seems to be logical, because standard users shouldn't have access to folders of administrators. Why is the my-documents-folder (of an admin-account) the standard installation folder? Which folder can I choose to run the game as a standard user? If i would choose c:\program files (x86) folder as installation folder can i run the demo as a standard user or should I give the standard user permission to write in the c:\program file-folder? Does the full game run using a standard user account? I didn't find a solution in the helpdesk and the forums. The search engine of the forum didn't work for me, because i didn't pass the captcha (several tries ). thanks
