Halo 2 PC question.
Will all H2 vista games work on windows 7 with a patch? I'm looking to buy H2 pc, but some say Vista or Windows 7 required, and others don't. Some say only Windows Vista.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] D4RKN3SS 94 How do I know if I need to update Windows client? And where would I go for that? Also, I'm assuming you only need to install once. Thanks.[/quote] There will most likely be a GFWL error that it will give you when Halo 2 tries to update. The GFWL client can be obtained [url=http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/pc/downloadclient]here[/url]. You only need to install it and run it once but usually this will eliminate any potential GFWL errors you may encounter on Halo 2 or future games. Also, please post any further questions in the Halo 1 and 2 for PC forum. This one is for Halo 2 Xbox ;) [Edited on 05.25.2012 10:00 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] D4RKN3SS 94 Alright, thanks, we're there any special patches or anything I need? I'm just being sure that I can go and buy any H2 pc off eBay, and have it work on windows 7.[/quote] Answer to your question - No special patches are needed, though you may need to update the Games For Windows Client (marketplace) separately to get H2V LIVE to work. My advice to your eBay purchase - Not 2nd hand. Halo 2 Vista can only be installed 5 times before you need a new CD Key or essentially, a new copy. Be warned.

Halo 2 Vista works on Windows 7. I'm running it now.
