TGB for Windows 7 on a MacBook

by Sarah Johnson-Bliss · in Torque Game Builder · 12/23/2009 (10:10 pm) · 1 replies

I'm trying to set up bootcamp on my MacBook so that I can continue to use Torsion for my development efforts on the Mac. Downloaded and installed TGB only to be presented with a black screen each time I try to launch TGB. There are no obvious errors mentioned in the log file for TGB.

I have tried running as administrator and running in both XP(SP3) and Vista(SP2) compatibility modes to no avail. I have tried unstalling and reinstalling.

Any other ideas? Is it a hopeless incompatibility with the machine?

(This would all be even nicer if I could get my touch pad to work fully in Win7 :P)

Irony.

I installed VMWare Fusion to access my bootcamp partition. TGB works from there... but not while I am on the actual boot of Win7.
