I downloaded and installed the demo on Vista 64 and it plays fine.

Works for me under x64 also.

About EA's support of x64 i am don't really think it will come that soon since they don't even want to supprot widescreen monitors.

C&C3 demo running in widescreen here 1900x1200. I was presently surprised
when I also found it they're not just cropping 4:3 (like BFME) but actually
showing you more.

I would really like to check this demo out, but I am also having problems
launching it.

I'm running Vista Home Premium 64, using an Admin account. I've tried
running the file under various compatability modes, but it just fails every
time.

Being as other Vista 64 users have had some luck with this demo, it may be
more related to my hardware.

I'm using latest (including beta) drivers for Abit KN8 mobo (AMD CPU,
nForce4 chipset) and nVidia 7600 video card.

Any further suggestions?
