Vista I think (the new one). Also red alert 2 won't work. And as for generals it just freezes up. The only games that work are renigay and red alert. EA told me to send them stuff about my hard ware or something, so I'm trying that out now.

If you're running Vista, try disabling User Account Control. It has fixed the problem for 3 of my friends (who are running Vista).

Also, UAC is so annoying (and useless) that you'll get a headache after using your PC for 5 minutes if it's enabled.

Right click on the game's shortcut or EXE and click Properties. Click the Compatibility tab, and at the bottom of the window checkmark beside "Run this program as an administrator". Click OK and try running the game, it should work. Do this to all of the games you installed off TFD.
