Halo 2

Post by Elbarto »

Sooo...i just found my copy of Halo 2 and was about to play it again. But it looks like Windows 7 and Halo 2 don't really like each other. Always get "Couldn't initialize...bla". Tried to run it with Vista mode or as admin and even tried some Youtube video fixes. BUt still can't get this game to run.
Any ideas?

I have Halo 2 for my Windows 7 computer and it works pretty well. Maybe your graphics card can't handle the game's graphics?
