um ya i put the disk in and hit install and it starts preparing for the install a few green bars load then it flashes a message saying that it is only compatible with windows xp an 2000... well its xp just 64 bit edition is there a way to make it get thats its xp? I contacted midway and I got an its not compatable with x64 and there are no plans for a x64 patch or any kind of pre patch, which there sould be for all of there non 64 bit compatable games especially with windows vista comming out.

Right click on the games EXE and select properties. Select the compatability tab and select Windows 2000 in this tab
