As Steam installs the game itself, I didn't have that problem. So the problem is with the installer of the game? if so I would try setting the compatibility mode to XP.

Still, as the installer is about to run, the error dialog box comes up. How did you get it to work on your Win 7 x64? I did just that.

That should do the trick, but it may not work anyway for another reason, just like it happened to me when I tried to run it on my win7 x64.

I downloaded it from gamestop. The error get is that the game isn't compatible with my version of windows, I tried changing the hex values like in earlier solutions, it still didn't work.

Right now I can't test if they included this fix in the new exe or they just reverted to a previous version to remove the craked exe they had been using for the steam version since day one, just like max payne 2 and the rest. I actually can't find the string to fix in the new exe, so I'm positive that they included this fix in the new exe, no need to patch it anymore. The problem win Win7 x64 here (never tried it before in this OS) is the error "CoCreateInstance failed", which doesn't seem to have anything to do with dep. Right now I don't know what the cause of that problem would be. I just made a patch for win7 x64 and then realized that steam updated the exe and now the patch wont work.
