    My game was working fine in Windows Vista, but not in Windows 7 64bit

    I was trying to play a game on my new laptop I got but it does not seem to run.

    I am trying to run a game on it, but whenever I click the ICON to launch the game, it gets stuck and it shows:

    "Kinora Direct3d9 Windows" in my taskbar and CPU load is high. It gets stuck so I have to close it from the Taskbar.

    On the previous computer it ran fine, but I had windows vista.

    Note: The demo of the game runs fine on high settings, its just the FULL game that does not seem to run for some reason.

    Please help.

    Thanks.

    Im assuming you've tried re-installing the game? ;)

    And yeah, the name of the game would help. :)

    If the demo works but the full version doesn't, then you should try either reinstalling the game or downloading the entire game again, as some files may have been corrupted.
