Runs well except for the occasional white screen of death in game.

Win7 Pro 64bit.

Some maps occasional AH unrecoverable errors. Some maps a video and audio hang and black screen for 20-30 seconds then a reset like when you go to the desktop then bring the game back up with the audio returning instantly while the video rendering rebuilds the environment. I'm using an NVIDIA GTX275. When I get the video reset, after I log off the game for the night Win7 will give me a video error warning that my NVIDIA card had stopped working then was recovered.

Win 7  64 bit works fine. Only one problem with AH and Rise of Flight, I had to install a previous version of Video Drivers for my
ATI Radeon 5770 card.

Isn't there a known issue with the Duo Cores which are addressed in the Tech forums?

I was reading the one where they are attributing problems to the windows 7 64 bit OS.

I started this thread to get an idea if this is a widespread OS problem.

So far the W7 64 problem does not to be as common as I feared it to be. :D

Good news. :aok             So far. :pray

I forgot to mention about the adobe flash. It does not run on 64 bit IE. It will in the 32 bit on a 64 bit system.

That is an issue of adobe's.

Win 7 Pro is very stable. I have 5 machines at home that stay on 24/7. The only time they reboot is when an update requires it.

It has some great features too.....

If you have 2 documents open that you would like to compare.... simply drag one to the left side and the other to the right. They automatically open to half screen.
If you have several windows open and only want to see one on screen... grab that one by the bar and shake it. All the other windows shrink to bar. Shake it again and all the other wndows return.

There are many more great features.

Windows 7 64-bit here as well.  Generally it runs great, but I have had AH2 crash a couple of time since I started playing a few weeks ago.  It hasn't happened much, so I have not spent any time trying to determine the cause.

I'm running a core i7 860 with a GeForce GTX260, if that matters to you.

Win7 Enterprise 64bit with a core2 e6600 on an Nforce 680i mobo, no problems at all, but then I have turned a lot of chaff off and run the system fairly lean.

The one oddity I've found on the one Win 7 64 bit I have at home (my game system) is that java is sometimes "wierd".  It works, but some sites (NewEgg's is the one I notice most) acts as though it's not. (On Newegg for example, I can't login successfully to view past orders or enter an order).  I keep meaning to check a work system and see if the same occurs, but I keep forgetting.

Otherwise, it's been completely troublefree.  I have no difficulties with AH - or at least, that I've run into in the fairly limited amount of time I have to play games on it.

Ghastly I believe the problem wkith java is noscript add on.  There has been lots of problems since two updates before, at least that is the problem with mine.  I have to constantly switch between 3.6.6 and 4.0.  Some are java some are adobe problems.
