Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations

I got fleet ops installed in Vista 64bit!
How you may ask? Simple:

Use safemode to install FO. Why? Because the process that prevents the decoding of the audio is apprarently disabled in safemod.

Now on to something else:
I used the so-called betafix patch for vista. It didn't work! It still freezes on me when I do certain things.
Feds seems to be random or something. It just freezes.

Klingons freeze everytime I try to use the second research platform.

What is the deal with this freezing?!

for reference: I went 3.0pr, Multimedia, patch1, then vista patch.

Did you install using XP originally? ...stumps me, I never have those problems and I am using 32 bit (maybe that's the reason....?)  :sweatdrop:
Glad it's workin though  :thumbsup:

On the same note, I propose that this thread either be lumped with one for fixing FO in Vista by a mod, or titled something along the lines of "alternative Vista fix," so that it may more easily be found  :whistling:

I probably should've thought of that earlier... It did work though  :D

I used to have xp and everything always worked fine. Is it possible something could be wrong with my copy? also, This other guy did it before me, But it was buried in the thread about the vista betafix.

I have armada 1 and aside from adjusting capatability, no freezing!

your find its because you installed it to program files... with all versions of Vista it wont work from program files... you need to go in there and grab the fleet ops folder and shove it on your desktop... Basically UAC stops the program from working because of how the loader is writtern if i remember correctly.

You mean the freezing in game? Also, I have uac turned off...But i'll try what you said anyway.
