JigVictor07 Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 Should CM Mod Manager work in Windows XP? I have an XP Pro and when I try to run the manager I get the error message "CM ModManager has encountered a problem and needs to close. Etc."

bfamily33 Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 That stinks! I'm not upgrading until I know XP runs CMBO and the ModManager! Gates better get people working on it. I also heard, on the news, there's also an upgrade / download (from MS web site) to increase the security. Something about the personal / home XP version being more at risk to being hacked when you're on-line. Don't you just hate bugs! Of course, if CMBB doesn't run on my current system I may have no choice but move towards XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 If you can run CMBO you will be able to run CMBB. I have yet to hear anything nice about XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattias Posted February 3, 2002 Share Posted February 3, 2002 I'm using Windows XP Home edition. CMMOS works without problem. CM works flawlessly now that the latest beta patch is out for Nvidia cards. Out of my quite substantial library of game software it is only the Rough Spear games that suffer from an XP related bug (keyboard lag), and that is one that is not limited to XP either I hear as it has been spotted in Win 2000 systems as well. For my system (home boiled Abit/AMD/Nvidia) XP has been a BIG step forward from Win 98 2ed as far as system stability goes. And things just work out of the box in a way that was not the case with the earlier Windows version. It is just plain a better OS, the large HD footprint with less than top level utilities completely aside. Most of the "horror" stories I heard last year just don't hold true and all you who are still doubtful can from now on say that you have heard at least one satisfied customer. M. P.S. The fact that I am an ex Win 3.0 / 95 / 98 owner should probably be factored in when considering how easy I am to please though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JigVictor07 Posted February 3, 2002 Author Share Posted February 3, 2002 Oopss, sorry guys... don't blame Windows, it was my fault... I didn't re-install the Mod Manager... Before I upgraded to XP I copied the Mods folder to another drive and then just copied it back to CM folder after I installed XP and CM and thought it would work just fine... What a rookie mistake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
