Hi, built a new i7 system from ocuk and wanted to test out supreme commander on it, however everytime I try to run gpg net and the update, it always fails... I'm running windows 7 64 bit, anyone know fo any fixes? Did a quick search and couldn't see anything on the forums or google about it.

Thanks

Good Good, just ordered it...

Having some other problems now with windows 7, I installed the core optimiser and the 3gb enabler... but in 3v3 games it still just crashes about an hour into it. What I gather is that I don't have to do the bcdedit stuff and just run the 3gb enabler, isthis right?

Any ideas?

I also hear that forged alliance fixes the 3gb problem?

Thanks

Yes yes its 64bit, sorry should have said. Errrr I think you still need the 3gb enabler, in the read me it mentions 64 bit systems and gives instructions for them so i assume so.

Go into the installation folder for GPG.net. Right click 'Check Update.exe' and select run as administrator.

It'll update okay then but once GPG.net has updated you'll need to close it and do the same again to update Sup Com.

Downloading the updates manually from the gpg forums worked... thanks anyway, just trying to sort out the crashing now. It definatly is when it gets close to using 2gb of ram that it crashes. I don't understand why the 3gb enabler didn't work...
