HELP!!! I recently purchased C&C TFD and it won't run with my Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I have exhausted my limited computer skills trying to fix it to no avail. I have tried running as administrator in XP service pack 2 and 3 compatability, manually un-installing and manually installing, even tried to run it through the main administrator account. I tried the options.ini file, but I am not sure i did it correctly because it didnt work either. I originally would receive a game.dat error, now i get a technical difficulties message saying a serious error has occurred and refers to my operating system failure. I have no clue what to try now, so if there is anyone who may be able to help it would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

OK. Explain this to me: I just tried to load the game to get the error message and the game actually loaded!!! I exited twice and it still lets me play now. This was the first time i tried to boot it in my normal user account after trying the admin account. What did I do and why does it work now??? LOL

I also didnt end any processes in the task manager. Could that have been it?
