Hmm I've deleted the MFPlat.dll file and it works until I try to enter my product key, then it just freezes saying:

Halo 2 for windows vista has stopped working
whats going on?

Aeh you are not suppose to delete MFPlat.dll. Just download it and put it aswell into your H2V folder and try again. To me it looks like your original MFPlat.dll has been patched/modified, by a virus or however.

Have you tried just installing it and playing it? More info please.

Something's not right, here. A normal install of h2vista should provide the DLLs required to run the game, if they're not already located on a native Vista install.

Either you've got some malware on your system... or something else is going on here. Run some sweeps with Ad-Aware and/or Spybot in safe mode, update Windows, etc, and reinstall Halo 2.

Meh... I doubt it is a malware/virus problem. I think it is something else.

Seems like the Jump command is not really POPing. :rolleyes:

Glad you get it. You are part of the 0.001% who do

Hi to all,

Here is the d3dx9_31.dll : http://www.d3dx9.net/download-missing-d3dx9_31-dll/ and http://dllcentral.com/d3dx9_31.dll/9.15.779.0000/…download it and then extract the downloaded zip file to the system32 folder which is located in windows folder (that is located in your main drive which contains the installed windows)

This website does not exist for you to practice your "Tech Agent Customer Service skills". Also, you have failed at providing any kind of useful support, this thread/topic was created THREE YEARS AGO. Do you plan to wait THREE YEARS to assist people with their "Technical Support" problems?

"Necroposting (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/necropost)" (also called "necrobumping" or "gravedigging"), occurs when a forum thread that has been inactive for a long time, typically years, is bumped by a reader, usually in response to what he inadvertently believes to be an ongoing discussion, perhaps coming from a web search rather than from within the forum.
