Problem with Pixel Shader version for Bionicle Heroes under Vista

[Ryland]

I just installed Bionicle Heroes for my son under Vista64 and whenever I try to start it it complains that it needs Pixel Shader 1.1. This game worked fine on the same hardware under XP Pro. I have tried running it in Compatibility mode but that didn't help. The system is the one in my sig.

Have you tried a different game that require Pixel Shader 1.1 or any different hardware? Has the game been released recently? If so, try to find a patch. Did you update Windows?

 

[Ryland]

Windows is fully updated and I have tried Halo2, Fable, etc.

bump, anyone?

I tried going through Eidos tech support and was told that they won't support it under Vista since it was not originally designed for Vista but does anybody have any ideas of a workaround?

 

[Ryland]

Well I finally fixed this problem by installing a no-cd cr*ck which allows the game to startup and run although I do not know why.

Thanks but the problem is already solved and it wasn't Vista64. the game works rather well in Vista.
