Call of Duty 1

Hey, i just want to know if it'll be possible for me to play Call of Duty 1 on my vista system. I heard that I can but I just want to know before I buy it. Also, I want to try myst but i'm pretty sure that's not gonna work. Thanks!

Hi Bartleby,

Welcome to Vista Forums.

I have no problem with the demo version running on Vista. It should run fine.

Also, welcome to the Vista Forums Bartleby!

Shawn is our resident expert on Vista. However, I did find some compatibility postings on other forums about this game and Vista. Perhaps if you tell us a little bit more about the hardware you'll be using, I'll find out if you are affected by any of these side issues. Nvidia (I use one too), was one of the video cards mentioned. I'll help you if I can.

tried one of the early versions and was warned of a compatability issue, COD4 works fine

I might try COD4, it seems pretty cool. I just really like the original. Plus, 1 is like $20 and 4 is like $50. So i was kind of worried I'd buy 4 and not be able to play it, so thanks. I don't really know what kind of hardware you mean, like graphics and stuff? I'm not so great with computers.

Basic hardware profile, processor (duo, quad core) speed, installed RAM (1,2,4,8 GB), Hard disk drive (160, 320, 500+ GB), video card (maker, like nvidia, model #, amount of video ram 128MB, 256MB, 512MB). Basically, the hardware that can affect game play.

Have played COD 1 on Vista Home premium with no issues

First off, you willhave NO problems with COD4, I kill electrons with it everyday. If you are looking at COD, then look for the the "good' version. LOL The "good version" has COD, the expansion pack, United offensive, AND COD2 all for like 19.99 or maybe 29.99. I installed COD2 the other day (did COD4 as soon as I built this computer) and have not had a single problem with it. I was thinking of installing my COD and United offensive but have just been lazy. Just for YOU lol I'll install it now and see if I have any problems. Check back in a few hours.............

Edit: Ok, loaded COD (the first one) and the 1.5 patch smooth as buttermilk and played the intro. No probs. I say go for it dude. REMEMBER, get the version with COD, United Offensive, and COD2.
