---------------------------

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

---------------------------

Buffer overrun detected!

Program: ...les (x86)\CAPCOM\resident evil 4\SetupTool.exe

A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's

internal state. The program cannot safely continue execution and must

now be terminated.

Sure the disc isn't scratched? If it is get it replaced because buffer overruns are usually indication of that.

i've even tried to download just the file SetupTool.exe from the web and im getting the same error

As far as I know Resident Evil 4 is just a hasty port.. (I heard it was a bad port actually. No mouse support or shading -- is that right?), so I wouldnt expect it to run on 64-bit just yet.

You're right, it is a bad port. I have it running on my Vista Ultimate x86 and it looks... bad. Forget bad, it looks worse than even the PS2 version and that is saying something. I've patched it to 1.10, installed mouse support and replaced the textures but it still looks blurred and really ugly, looking like something that was created in 1998 instead of 2006.

nop, im not planing to install xp just for this stupid port

i hoped for a normal solution but i guess that capcom couldn't care less.

I agree, gaming on 64 bit is a joke. I wouldnt recommend it but if you really want to, get used to these kinds of problems.

[Shasoosh]

i think the games companies that doesn't support x64 are joke

like CAPCOM!

in the last couple of years only bad ports for the pc
