I tried that, I even ran the security options and placed everything to "everyone" with full access... I give up... so many great games to play, I'm not going to waste my time on the one single game that gives me these stupid problems...

Vohk I am not a child and I know exactly what you are saying and I've been trying to be patient all this time. However, the only true steps into solving this problem only occurred when I signed in this forum after several emails requesting support. For some reason, no one seems to know their whereabouts. The only official support I got came after days, almost weeks of the topic start and not really supportive. I am SURE this problem has a solution and that the developers do have checklists that cover a problem I may be having, but instead, it's been a month and I still have no game, just a box. Furthermore, placing the word [answered] in this topic is somehow ironic. Nothing was asked and nothing was answered. So if this is a way to say "quiet!" then I have nothing else to say. I have a problem with a system that is claimed to run this game. It does not. Everything is legit and I cannot emphasize more that others have pirated versions running... what's up? It's just sad...

Should I consider I am not worthy of costumer support? Because thousands of copies work fine, including other systems similar to mine, I am to be considered a lesser user, thus have no real support. If you want me to shut up, I will. This costumer support is really bad.

Well I did send that messasge, both through Costumer Suppport and right after the suggestion. I did not invent this. Anyway, thank you for coming here. 1- Updated All drivers for Bootcamp Win 7 plus Nvidia drivers too. 2- All rights and permissions granted, security level is set to low. 3- Norton was uninstalled and I now run Windows Essentials. Same results. 4- Just checked the latest Build and confirmed I downloaded the latest patch. Again, I mention that the Steam demo is working fine. :(

I won't use piracy if I wanted to buy a box in the first place... come on... The item is working in my old machine running Vista, so this could very well be a problem with Windows 7 or something. No other game gives me this problem, so maybe, there's a solution. So far I have 15€ worth of useless plastic at home...

Demo runs perfectly... now I am stupidified... Are there any differences in the Steam version from the box version?

It's getting frustrating now. It's been 15 days trying this, I sent that PM do Dwarden and so far only you guys replied and no one from BI... I am sure this is something related to my specific system. I know the copy is ok, but I can't go around this issue. I see that other bootcampers play the game, so it's not rig related. I can only assume it's drivers or something. Strangely enough I read around the web and found some people complaining the very same issue with other cracked games... and that's odd... Could my copy have some sort of code that Windows is blocking? Copy protection or something? I play so many games in my system, from COD to OFPDR and OFPRR, MoH, Bad Company 2, all demanding games, never had an issue... One last resort... I am going to download the Demo from Steam... we'll see what happens...

Two words. That link you supplied doesn't install due to an "internal error". I did however run the latest web installed that also didn't install saying I already had the latest version of dll's... Any other suggestions are welcomed...

But isn't it supposed to run using DX11? I'll try it anyway.

MS Windows 7 32 Bit Intel Core i7 2.66 4Gb Ram DDR3 Nvidia Geforce GT 330M 145 Gb available Running Norton Internet Security 2011 updated, disabled during instalation and running the game, problem persists. DirectX 11 installed (stardard to Windows 7) and updated to latest build. Like I said, specs aren't the problem.

I have a BOOTCAMP Mac running Windows 7. My system tops that by far. And like I said I have other games running fine.

I don't want to be redirected to the same places I've been before. I wanted to have proper support to get the game working. I am not nagging to get attention, I want the game running to fire some rounds...

No errors at all. It just doesn't start up. I just tested the game on my old PC with windows XP and it works. So it's not a faulty copy.

Try putting yourself in my shoes: I support the industry by buying games. I get a faulty game and miss warranty by hoping bohemia can help me in my issue. I get no replies whatsoever. I search the web and mess my head trying to solve this since BI doesn't seem to care. Meanwhile I have a useless box at home of a game I really wanted to play. I look around and see all these torrents flowing the web and people saying the game's good and all. What do you feel? You would feel that supporting companies might pay if they helped you but when they do not, you can't help but feel you shouldn't have bought the game in the first place. And your words, ProfTournesol, I understand them, I can't however feel moved since I get no support anyway... so...

I did. I even messed with permissions and registrty stuff. No luck. This is just stupid. AOA is the only game I have that returns this error. ---------- Post added at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ---------- The worst part of this was seeing that my emails were ignored by your support and that I have a useless game that no one seems to care to solve or even knows how to... Getting a bit aggravated since I bought this game. Perhaps if I just get the cracked torrent I would be playing the game... talk about irony, huh...
