DX Ball on Vista

TimW · Jul 10, 2011

Anyone able to play this game on Vista? I downloaded it and it locked up my computer when trying to run it in XP mode with Admin. rights. Had to uninstall it. Wouldn't run in normal vista mode either.

Does it run if you install it As Administrator? If it needs DirectX you might want to make sure you have Dx9 installed, since the backward compatibility for DirectX isn't what it should be.
