Adding to the list of people who this worked for, I have the dvd version of Far Cry 1, an AMD quad core cpu, and Windows 10 64 Bit. It took a long time for the patch file to be able to install but with a lot of patience for each step this absolutely worked first time. I didn't need to install the 1.31 or 1.32 patches which were on the disc either, went straight for the amd64upgrade and all is well.Originally Posted by SP_937_215 Go to original post

Hi all I've tried installing far cry on my system ,it wont run tried all the above suggestions and nothing works,
I uninstalled in , now when I try to install ,it doesn't even give me the option to do that ,so I try to install by opening
and install from the set up exe then I get the 1603 error, this is one of my fav games can anyone help.
I have the original DVD rom
Same problem here.
Windows 10 Pro
i7 - 2600
8GB
Intel HD Graphics
Have tried the previous options, except for the AMD updates, since I am on Intel.
This DID work on an earlier version of Win 10, though I'm not sure which one. It's been almost a year since I tried.
The install went fine, it simply does NOTHING when I try to launch it. It doesn't even show in the task manager that anything is even trying to start.
I appreciate everyone's help here.
I hope some new ideas come up. This is STILL a great game!
Thanks,
I wonder if someone can help me.. I had an issue in the FC1 mission Pier. While playing it on Realistic level, I couldn't access the armory I'm supposed to blow up. I'm just stuck there.. Then, when I started a new Walkthrough on challenging level, I managed to access the mentioned armory normally??
