How do i get a game that needs 32 bits to play on a computer that has 24 bits max(needs true color that is 32 bits when a computer has 24 bits).

Bios too old and the 32 Bit system is inadequate to manage the function desired.

Sounds like there is some process being run that is eating up a lot of your RAM. One thing to check is that you are using a 64-bit install of windows if you are using 32-bit it won't matter that you have 6gb as you can only use 3gb with it. It could be that you are running 32-bit and 7 is taking up about a gb of RAM while the games (even when closing) take up 2gb or so. So you could be maxing your 3gb on 32-bit.

well, i have a problem with a game and it came out like 3 months before 7 and it won't play simply because some games have a max versions that it can run on. because the new systems are to complex for a 1997 game, i can help. First of all it is possible to install and use 32-bit software on a 64-bit computer in different ways:

• Installation of 32-bit compatibility libraries (ia32-libs)

• A 32-bit chroot
  

• Full virtualization through KVM or VirtualBox
  

• Another option in a pinch is getlibs. getlibs
  

A use case for getlibs was installing the Amazon MP3 Downloader software, it is written for 32 bit only and without their software downloading mp3s would otherwise be incredibly time consuming. hope it helps!!!!!!!!

note: crysis 1 has a very high requirement.... because of the game engine it use.....

dont forget to rate!

Right-mouse click anywhere on the desktop "wallpaper".
Click Properties.
Click Settings.
Change from 16-bit or 24-bit to 32-bit.
Click Apply.

as long as you have proper cable available, yup

Your problem is that the correct video driver is not installed and therefore cannot use all the video RAM.(the XP version of the video driver won't work with Win98).
When you adjust to True color at a higher resolution it drops to a lower resolution because it has insufficent video RAM, but you will get a higher screen resolution at a 16 bit color because it requires less memory (video RAM).
Install the Win98 driver for the graphics card and then it can use the full video RAM at a higher screen resolution with 32 bit color.

if its a stock system with out upgrades can go to

HP select your OS then select graphics

this means that your screen settings are not compatible with the game. like 16 bit color to 32 bit color. set the screen settings so that you can play. Display properties would let u adjust these colors.
