Damn - if only Dark Drakan were here he'd probably know the answer...

Is DMC3 compatible with Vista in the first place? I don't really know an awful lot of anything about operating systems and the like so that's all I can think of to ask...you may need to find a site that provides legal patches to fix any compatibility issues that could be causing the problems.

I have it, and thats is some sweet specs, but im afraid that it will not work without the use of a patch if there is one, i will look now, but i cannot guarantee anything

EDIT: here is a link i have found, i dont know where you live so i dont know which patch you want, but here are 3 patches for Vista and graphical fixes

Does it not run at all or do you have display problems or what? What is the problem exactly that your having? Ive heard that it runs on Vista so shouldnt be just that causing the issue. Vauxchen posted some links to some good patches for it that might help before we go any further.

On the shortcut at the desktop, use the right-click and go to Properties. There go to Compatibility and choose Windows XP: Service Pack 2. Click OK and you shouldn't have any problems. That's how It works for me at least.

Have to let us know if the patches help at all, and you could try Dante Aseroths technique as it can work sometimes. Your english is fine, we can understand dont worry. ^_^

Im not so stupid xD I had done it before... i was tryin wit each option there is nd its not workin

Those patches r not workin. There is same problem as before.... nd i was tryin Dante Aseroths technique aswell nd its not workin...

 

[Sparda™]

I didn't say you were stupid. I was just trying to be helpful.:lol:

The patches must work.

P.S.: As for your PC Specs, mine are more higher.

hello guys i need your help ? I installed the game on my windows vista and the paches too but it doesn't work ??? it says " dmc3se.exe is not responding " ??? it makes me crazy !!! please help me somebody ...

I had that problem on My XP. I found out that my computer wasn't compatible with the game (it was either something to do with the sound or video card.) It works fine on my Vista laptop, but i lost the save game when I encountered the blue screen of death... i didn't have the patches installed either. In fact, here's the link to the thread that I posted when I had trouble.

The full specifications for the game are here:

But, it either sounds like a video card problem, a sound card problem or installing the patches... but I'd go with video card.

Sorry I can't be anymore help.

Have you updated drivers for video card and sound card? What are your specs?
