Sounds like that might be the Run as Admin thingy. If you're on an older Windows, right click on the icon and click Run as Admin. Not sure how it's done with Win 10. :-k

Try running in Compatibility Mode. Also try ticking the "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" on the Compatibility setting tab.

And for a little more info, when I right click and run ehm as admin, it gives me the warning box that comes up when you run anything as an admin. Then after I click OK nothing happens.

Issues with EHM 07

Post by JaredMcGehee »

I know I already made a post about this but it didnt get too many replies and I wanted to ask before I just buy the Steam version.

My disc copy of EHM 2007 wont run on my computer. Tried using both windows 7 and 10. Wont work with either and nothing I tried made it work any better. Any advice on what to do??

For me I switched to EHM:EA the day it came out, haven't thought about EHM07 since...my advice is to buy EHM on Steam :-)

Yup, I agree. EHM 07 is almost ten years old, and most of us have moved on already. Very hard to get any support, and time is running against it on modern platforms.
