That makes no difference, because the game will still crash when the map is loading.

I managed to get compatibility mode to work!

....but I still get a crash at map start, even in Win 98 Comp mode.

Also I can play vanilla 1942 so I don't think I have the refresh rate glitch.

Well, this is what my video.con file says:
rem ** RangerPL **
run Profiles/RangerPL/Video.con

and the file it refers to, says:
rem *** Generated ***

game.setGameDisplayMode 1400 1050 32 60
game.setDetailTexture 4
game.setShadows 1
game.setEnvironmentMapping 1
game.setGraphicsQuality 3
game.setLightmaps 1
game.setRenderWhenSpawnMenu 1
game.setMenuViewdistance 100
game.setEffectsQuality 3
game.setPerformance 3

I changed it to 800x600 and I still get the startup CTD with Win98 comp mode.

The problem is with compatibility mode, I get a CTD at game launch (before the intro video and EA logo shows up)

Windows 98 comp mode still gives me a CTD regardless of admin rights and .exe file.

Does anyone know where I can get the BF1942 Compatibility Library besides the filefront thread? The links they have don't work.

My problem is that everyone suggests using Win 98 comp mode but that doesn't work for me.

Hello.

I've enjoyed FH 0.7 greatly on my old computer but once I upgraded to Windows 7, I found that it no longer works. More specifically, it CTDs whenever I try to load a map. I googled it but none of the solutions they have seem to work. I've tried several methods of fixing this problem already:

Windows 98 compatibility mode
I get a CTD when starting Battlefield 1942.

Other compatibility modes
Still CTDs on mapload.

I have the latest video card drivers so that can't be it.

Battlefield 1942 vanilla runs fine, so does Desert Combat mod but DC extended crashes as well.

Please, someone help me. I'm desperate to play this excellent mod once again.
