Windows 8 is making gaming difficult
07 December 2013 - 09:00 PM
I recently bought a laptop, it runs Windows 8. I'm having different issues with gaming on it. I'm going to assume that the problem is Windows 8, considering it's a fairly capable laptop otherwise.
A few examples: Older games (Rollercoaster Tycoon, Zoo Tycoon, Rise Of Nations) will run, but have no sound. Except for Rollercoaster Tycoon 3, which goes blank before it reaches the main menu. Sonic Adventure 1 goes to a black screen after the Sonic Team logo, while SA2 runs but doesn't have sound. Sonic Generations worked the first few times I tried it, but one day I opened it and after the Sega logo I got "Critical error. The detected configuration does not does not match your current hardware. Please re-run the configuration tool." After trying different things with the configuration, I just re-installed it and now it won't launch at all. Sonic And Sega All-Stars Racing works fine. All-Stars Transformed's sound cuts out once it gets to the main menu. Batman Arkham City has no sound.
Surprisingly, Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite run just fine.
So what's the issue? And if Windows 8 is causing it, what should I do to fix that? I'd rather not switch to Windows 7, because I actually like a lot about it. If I could dual-boot, that'd be great, but I'm not quite sure that's possible on my laptop.
