Windows 7 64 bit <-- SOLVED

Hello,

I have a new laptop now and it is Windows 7 64 bit, SINS would simply not start, just crash right away when I try to start it...

Any ideas?

-----
Update:

Make sure you have 100% Display scaling... not 125% as it defaults to some large resolutions laptops...

it happens a lot so that you dont need to worry. just reinstall SIN , net frame C++ couple times then It should work

Ok Thanks guys, I will give it a try

im using 64bit os but no problem just run it on admin mode

Still not working on Windows 7 64 bit.
I tried uninstall/install several times .NET 4.0 + the C++ library,
I have it run as admin + Compatibility mode XP, still no dice, any idea?

I have a Laptop Toshiba quad core Phenom 1.6 , 4Gb Ram,Win 7 home edition and it works fine have you tried re-dowloading SINS, or maybe put SINS in your firewall exception list?

Ok this is what I tried so far:

1. tried uninstall/install several times .NET 4.0 + the C++ library

2. I have it run as admin + Compatibility mode XP, still no dice, any idea?

3. Downloaded it again from website.

4. Disabled my firewall

5. Disabled my antivirus (as Kaspersky still finds it as a threat)

All these did not work yet :(
Any other ideas?

Thanks all for your input.

https://sins.forumotion.net/t857-solved2126-jd , try this one maybe it helps

at the first, i think you can reinstall your C++ x64, and nEt 4.0 x64 for win 7 64 bit( not x86). And then you can disable Centre Security of win( system defendse, anti virus, firewall set normal). Redownload the newest the Sin on the 4Rum, and Run it as Admin. I use Win7 64bit no problem with Sin

actually, I got the same problem as you when I tried to use SIN 2.1. You should try to change the setting theme. For me, It worked.

Setting theme? You mean change the desktop theme?
I will try this and check...

Tx 4 the info

Solved, tyvm tiendo84, after putting display size to 100% (it was 125%) it worked :)

WTF? What does display size (font) gotta do with SINS? This is obviously some NET 4.0 bug.

SINS doesn't even use anything theme related.

Hehe, no idea :)
But give it a try in ur machine in debug mode, I am sure you will find the reason...

The exception that was thrown was System.ArgumentException... details above.

Thanks.

As i said in my post before- i have win7 and it works fine on my Laptop

shootttttttttt,

I had to spend 8 hours today to fix this problem too. Cannot believe it. definitely a net frame 4.0 bug.

try to run SINS.exe in admin mode also set the compatibility to windows Xp sp2 .. it worked for me

hope this won't happen to me. i'm planning on switching to W7 64bit in a few days.

I did what this thread suggested and it works. Changed scaling to 100%. Thanks buddy.
