Can someone help me please
Hey
I have windows 7 and I have a 3 year old game battle for middle earth and it keeps on coming up with a debug message i'm not sure if anyone will be able to help me with this but is there something wrong with windows 7 drivers or would it be the game? |
Well with the new models of Windows some old game are not compatible with it. There is updates coming soon the last tim eI heard to make most game compatible. But I guess you will have wait till then :(

There doesn't seem to be any clear fix for this problem yet. Sorry to say, but the game is in poor shape. Wouldn't get my hopes up of a fix appearing anytime soon.

My only recommendation is to hold no punchs in publically criticizing the lack of support for newer Operating Systems from the few games that have the guts to pull that stunt. Quite frankly, there's no excuse. We gamers hold ourselves to a higher standard of keeping up with the newest and greatest than the working type. |
Download and install DirectX 9.0c, and try again.
@ PokemonTrainerYellow: In 2007, Vista hate was rampant, and Vista was still new enough to not be a factor. I don't blame developers for not developing for Vista then. |
I have Direct X 11 installed on my computer is the latest one?

It just occurred to me that it's impossible to install directX 9C on Vista/7 since you get a message saying "you're up to date" from the installer.

I've got a game called Worms World Party that's 10 years old and still works. Patches exist for a reason, and I'm personally done tolerating any of the few video games that are still only supporting XP. I'm looking at you, Mabinogi. Point being, there's not much you can do if a company is not going to support your operating system. |

@PkMnTrainerYellow: Some games didn't do well enough to merit patches. If a game has been re-released in a bundle since 2007, it likely has been patched for Vista, and has a much better chance or working in 7. |
Have you tried to use compatibility mode by any chance?

You may have to get a computer with XP if you want to play this game. :\

All I have to say is that the problem apparently isn't unique and it appears to be related to a company letting it's userbase down.
I did however find this Vista fix. It MAY work for 7, since Vista is the major compatibility breaker, not 7. http://www.middleearthcenter.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=422 |
