EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted November 25, 2001 I'm getting WinXP tommorow (I have Win ME now) and I want to know if OFP will work on it. I mean I looked at the box and it doesnt say anything about it. So is anyone running WinXP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WisdoM 1 Posted November 25, 2001 Ive heard of probems with it, ut I'm not sure, as I'm waiting a few months before purchasing WinXP. *Hint* Never buy software when it's first released Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tlx 0 Posted November 25, 2001 It will run. Since Windows XP was released after OFP the box says nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted November 25, 2001 I'm not actually "buying" it. So I'll just hope for the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Z 0 Posted November 26, 2001 Hi there, I have got Windows XP! and I have been able to play OPF with no problems but one, That problem is Driver related I think, Use Laser Designator (OPF1.3) dumps out to windows, that even if AI use it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Krull SGC 0 Posted November 26, 2001 I've been playing OFP on XP Pro for almost a month now, and I have had no problems at all with it. In fact XP really is, in my opinion, as good as Microsoft claim. I haven't had a single crash, either with Windows itself or any of my games since installing it. It truely is stable, and system performance is definately better. The only problem I have had is with my Creative PC-DVD Encore setup. The nice folks at Creative don't feel the need to provide XP driver and software support for the Dxr3 decoder card, so I have a piece of hardware that is under 1 year old and it is already out of date because Creative can't be bothered to support it yet, and people b*tch about the problems they have with OFP!?!?!? At least BIS support it once they have got you to buy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted November 26, 2001 Thanks all who have replied to my ignorant question. I get it. Win XP works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akira 0 Posted November 28, 2001 I've had no difficulties with software that the compatibility wizard didn't fix. Only one problem: My Savage4 is having trouble now with OFP...blacked out textures and the like. I can only assume it is XP driver problem since it worked fine in 98SE....I don't look forward to going back to SE if I can't play OFP.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
