    Crysis 64bit

    Anyone else having problems with running this game in 64b? When loading it just hangs, DVDROM light does not even blink. Vista says there is a problem loading game. I have even adjusted the full screen mode, and also lowered the graphics from very high, to just high, which I shouldn't have to since I seem to believe my rig is capable of handling this game. I also installed the last NVidia drivers, and even reverted back to the last drivers, and still no go on 64.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Also, I am not overclocking.

    Thanks.

    Negative... I installed it and ran it first time through w/o any issues. I just made sure I added a shortcut to my desktop that pointed to the bin64 folder instead. Even still, the 32-bit program ran fine for me as well. Have you had any other issues with running games?

    Yes as of matter of fact, I loaded GRAW and could not launch this from the games folder, same with Crysis. I even clicked "Run as Admin" and nothing. However, if I open my "C" drive, and launch it from the DVD, it will load. I did in fact add the 64exe to my desktop, and tried to install, still no luck. I having no luck finding out why my games do not launch in game's folder.

    Just gotta give MS some time to fix issues with Vista, but I have been running this for 6 months and I like it...

    Well I don't think its a vista "issue" per say. If that was the case I think we'd here more people not being able to run it in x64. Have you tried a fresh install with all the latest drivers and direct x?

    Mine ran out of the box. When I tried to run from the 64bit icon it crashed. How do you check if you are running the 64bit when in game. I run from the games menu with no problems. If it is the 32bit then it runs fast. I think the icon in the game directory detects what os you have and runs the app associated. Any feedback would be a great help.

    Crysis wont run from the Desktop icons I created from the C/crysis/64 bin etc.

    I had to pin it to the start menu so I dont have to run through the files everytime.

    It doesnt matter which 32 or 4 bit icons you place on Desktop they all hang and fail to run!

    What is the reason no Desktop icons are created in 64 bit vista?

    Well there was no icon created on the desktop for me either. I made a shortcut to go to

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis\Bin64\Crysis.exe"

    No issues since day 1 install

    Guys, Crysis was specifically made for Vista / DX10. Please hit START, GAMES, right click on CRYSIS, and launch DX10.

    It will run the 64 bit version natively. Works like a charm.

    No "hacks" or desktop icons needed.

    Cheers.

    I'm having the same problem as Darkman. Whenever I try to start the game, I get the Vista "Program has stopped working" message. I have absolutely no idea why. The only time I get further is when I click on that small Crysis 64-bit icon in the bin64 folder. Then I see "Crysis DX10" on the start bar and a black rectangle in the middle of my screen, immediately followed by a crash notification.

    Re: Crysis 64bit

    Did you try my solution above? I had the same issue trying to start it from an icon or from the file in the main folder.

    When I go to WINDOWS GAMES, the actual games launcher, it works fine.
