Thread: NVIDIA and other driver issues that affect PG2


Started 4 months, 2 weeks ago by Wittmann
http://www.panzercentral.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t =41215 This is the issue I have on my laptop with the NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140 graphics card. I have to disable or lowering graphic acceleration before playing PG2 and then enable it for any other game, video or application. Also the screen is very small and scrolling the map is very hard because it moves very fast and I have to use arrow keys ...

I'm not sure the installer solves all these problems. There is a recruit at the moment using it who is still having issues. Can play PG2 but the mouse skips off icons and there are no AI combat projections. Minor but annoying.

I read the linked posts. ...

Good news. Hopefully there won't be the same number of issues with Windows 7 as there were with Vista (may the fleas of a thousand camels infest it).

I just changed the settings they way you suggested and the PG II works on my new Windows 7 computer. Hurray!

Great news, what about the FFWC designer scenarios? I have not yet been able to get them working correctly.

It seems like I fiddled around toooooooo much with various settings. The only compatibility changes needed are for PANZER2.exe and PG2UK220.exe I now have all three eqfiles working ok under Windows 7. What I need to do now is sort out a decent email service, without Outlook Express I am lost. I can still us my existing email service but it is somewhat long winded, I have tried to get ...
