Have you tried running Battlefield: Vietnam in Compatibility Mode in Windows 11? You can set Windows 11 to run the game in the version of Windows that worked best for your title. Below you will find a hyperlink that can step you though the process:
I hope this helps.
Well it seems that didn't help, I rifled through all the compatibility modes with bupkus.
Well here is what I want to do now. My old laptop(a hand-me-down from my older brother(seems he's all the time doing that)), had Windows 7 installed when he acquired it. I was at his house and decided to install Windows 10 on it. BFV seemed to work fine on Win7 and Win10, both. Anyway, I had gotten my current rig about a year ago. It was faster had SSD and more mem plus it was faster. Anyway, I hardly used the old one. But I was playing a few online games on the new one. I wanted to play BF Vietnam on the new laptop so I installed and no go. Not even a start up. Along the way I ran out of room on both laptops. So I just kept playing the online games which were on Steam. The new laptop had Windows 11 so I was happy and it did play games I enjoyed, well. I just decided to go ahead and get a new drive for the old one and install Win7 or reinstall it. So that is what I am doing now. Should no more that a couple of days, and I had to reinstall Win10 so I can reinstall Win7. I just don't want to run into license and activation issues.
