Hope all goes well and watch out when you install CoD 2 in Windows 7 - I had a bitch of a time getting it running.

Gotta jump through a lot of hoops when installing 32 bit games on 64 bit OS'es. Sometimes using compatibility
mode won't work either.

Good luck, may the Gods of PC Gaming be with you.

HI, this applies just for cod2???,

i thought the x86 folder was used for all 32bit programs, and the program files folder was for 64bit programs.. Rolling Eyes

can you comfirm this

Blaz;

I setup my own folder called "Games" and I install all my games in that folder and also don't use the Drive(c:\) where the OS resides, I use my other drive (e:\)
to put all my games in.

I was under the impression that all 32 bit programs go in the folder "Program Files x86" and 64 bit programs go in a folder called "Program Files". I just did a check in
Windows Explorer and that's what it's doing.

Hope this helps.

Cool
