  Hello
  Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
   
  By design, the game is not compatible with windows7.
   
  You can also check with the manufacturer of game for any version upgrade of this game, which could be compatible with windows7.

  Yes, if you have the dual operating system on your computer, you can play and record games on xp, start the computer in Xp and you can play the game.

  I also invite you to visit this link to learn more about running the old programs/games in xp or vista compatibility mode.

  Here is the link:

• I bought Halo 2 for Vista, but who like OS Windows XP Pro, just can't launch the startup.exe, I search the community, there is a rumor that it won't work even with the patch. Can someone help, please?

  I bought Halo 2 for Vista, but who like OS Windows XP Pro, just can't launch the startup.exe, I search the community, there is a rumor that it won't work even with the patch. Can someone help, please?

  Unfortunately, Halo 2 does support Windows Vista and more.  Windows XP is not supported.  There may be 3 party hacks that can make it work, but they are not taken in charge and potentially dangerous.

• Halo 2 for Vista.

  Try to load Halo 2 for Vista and get a message that the game could not initialize and that maybe it's because another application of windows live gaming (such as halo 2 dedicated server can run on the same machine). If it's that I did not here. any ideas?

  Hi walby,.

  This problem can occur for the following reasons:

  ·        A file in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Catroot2 folder is damaged.

  ·        The Cryptographic Services service is disabled.

  Try the following steps:

  i. first uninstall Halo 2, also uninstall everything related to Windows Live.

  II. reinstall halo 2 from scratch

  III. start the game normally

  IV. then follow the Windows Live installer according to the instructions

  v. when the Windows Live Update option comes to update and restart the game.

  VI. connect to Windows Live, this will give you an option to update of Halo 2. Follow the instructions

• Impossible to uninstall, play or install Halo 2 for windows vista

  One time, I tried to install Halo 2 on my hp laptop. It had windows vista 64 bit (I now have windows 7). It installed, but when I tried to play it, it says "this program requires Microsoft windows vista or Microsoft windows 2003 server" and wouldn't let me play. So I tried to uninstall it. He says that it uninstalled, but when I looked, it was still on my computer. So I tried to uninstall it using ccleaner, and he gave me the same error message when I tried to play it. I went through all the files and deleted all. Then I tried searching for it in the start menu and nothing came, so I thought that I got rid of him. But when I tried to install it again, he said that the program was already installed... so I checked under the control panel and of course, he was always there and I still couldn't uninstall - play - or install it.

  Hey, thanks for your info. Yes, I tried both methods and it was always on my computer. I tried to install it anyway, but it would not even read the disc. He said "the files are missing or damaged in the installation directory. I'll just forget. In any case, thank you for your time and your input.

• My Windows 7 laptop will not be the same aknowlage that Halo 2 for vista is in disc tray

  OK, so I'm relatively new to windows, but I havn't seen this problem before. I did my homework on this game, reviews on Amazon says it ran fine on windows 7, and according to the thing of microsoft compadability Center, should be. I have been looking around and have seen discussions with people stuck with issuses in the game, but also far as my laptop is conserned it is foreign. I can hear it whirring upward when I put the disc in, start going strong for a second or 2 and then stop, like its trying to read but can not. Nothing apears on my desk. Again, I am new to windows, so this can be a very simple problem.
