Win seven compatibility

Post by rmn_rmn »

Hi everyone!
Just switched to win seven, and face strange bug - white screen in my game. I.e., I start the game and see only the white screen. However, when I run demos, they go well. Any ideas?

Maybe you have the infamous power-of-two bug (and you didn't have it before because you had drivers for your graphics card installed).

I used XP64 and all worked well...But your idea seems to be right. Is there any way to avoid this restriction?

Likely has little to do with Win 7 as tons of people on Win 7 x32 and x64 use this without problems.

Well, install the newest drivers for your graphics card.

I run Win7 Pro in both x32 and x64, and neither of them had any problems at all with Love. Or, much of anything at all, for that matter. It's hard to complain when you have to go looking all the way back at Win95 games to find incompatibilities.
