Ummm forgiveness prease? The square thing wasn't the only issue, mouse acceleration was totally out of whack, making it hard to click anything. I was also on GDI mission 9 when I was testing this yesterday. Sorry if my last post bugged you, I never intended to imply I was dissatisfied with the patch, I'm actually pretty happy that I can play the game at a solid framerate now. So yeah, thanks for making it possible

Ahh I see. That was never checked to begin with. The default is windows xp service pack 2, but it's unchecked and grayed-out. I did tick the boxes disabling the options described in my previous post in addition to running the ccconfig application that came with the patch. Thanks for the help, along with this thread I found a post by Nyerguds (http://forums.cncnz.com/topic/13910-106c-development-topic/page-36) Some of the resolutions turned the game into a buggy square in the top-left, but 800x600 seems to work. I think I've pretty much gotten the patch to work now, still abit of buggyness with the In-game movies slowing down, but the game itself runs much smoother now.

It says "show settings for all users". But There isn't clear disable option unless ticking the following is the way to go: Disable visual themes Disable desktop composition Disable display scaling on high DPI settings

Thanks for the advice. Sorry for the noob questions, but how do I disable it? Is it as easy as checking boxes under properties/compatibility or do I have to mess with the registry to do it? (never done that before).

Thanks, but does that work for the origin ultimate collection? I did try installing the CnC gold patch (Nyergud's) specifically last week, but it just started crashing on start-up.

I recently bought the Ultimate collection during a sale and planned to go through all of the games canonically. Problem is that ontop of the old interface(stuff like no unit queing) the game speed(framerate?) is really inconsistent and seems to tank alot, especially when the sidebar is open and stuff is training or building (I've already set the game-speed higher in the options menu). Really not sure what is causing the problem, thus far the only modifications I've made to the games was to install the "fixed launchers" from bibber's site, but this problem was around before that too. Anybody have an idea what could fix this?
