Half Life 2
Submitted by Anonymous on 2007-01-19 10:48:20 This product has a rating of 4 out of 5 running under Windows Vista 64 Bit (x86_64) Comments: Steam seems to work without any issues. The game itself didn't launch on 64 bit environment, but after adding the -32bit switch to the launch (or shortcut) parameters, it started without problems (didn't test much on to the game). This seems to be more of a native x64 issue (related or unrelated to Vista 64), that according to some forums just appeared with the recent HL2 updates. Vista handles security (and automatic measures for virtualizing the secured locations) differently for 32 and 64 bit native applications, which may also lead to the issue being Vista related. Regardless, the -32bit switch made the thing work at least for me. Kallex |
