I have it running on Vistax64. It works.

Re: Vista x64

I had problems after todays 1005 update, constant CTD's with the "... has stopped working" message.

This happened
- occasionally in game for no apparent reason
- occasionally after hitting deploy
- during every single map load
  (i can connect to a server, load the map and play until the map switches)

I rarely ever had a crash on vista before (ive been running it since v1.3) and i didnt touch my setup, so im pretty sure its related to this update.
Granted my version is patched up from 1.2, but always worked fine til today...
I will get a 1.4 full installer and try again.

jfyi

Re: Vista x64

If you're having trouble after an update, the seemingly best way to fix it is to:

1) Uninstall First Strike
2) Delete all builds in your Battlefield\Mods folder
3) Delete your cache folder in My Documents\Battlefield 2142\Mods\FirstStrike
4) Install First Strike 1.4 Full
5) Use the Launcher to update your game again

With the amount of people having trouble after an update, it's possible there's a never before seen bug with the updating that we didn't catch pre-release. So your best bet is to reinstall 1.4 and patch.
