For anyone that was having problems with playing the HD versions of runescape while running the Windows 7 OS. This problem occurs because when you upgraded to Windows 7 your video card drivers are not up to date anymore, you just need to update them. To do this manually, just go into your device manager and find your video card and click “update drivers”. That should fix the HD problem.

Thanks so much for this tip!! I had tried to install the latest vista driver I could find once before but when i went to install it said that it wasn’t the latest so I never installed it. However once I read this blog post I decided to go ahead and install it despite what it told me and now I got Runescape in HD again!

I think what was originally on my computer must have been some sort of beta driver specifically for windows 7.

Thanks again!

Sadly, you may also be stuck in a situation where the only answer is that the beta simply can not run it under YOUR currently configuation. Maybe you upgraded from Vista or XP to 7, or maybe you did a fresh install. Maybe one of a thousand different hardware elements is acting up. Maybe there was an unreported installation hiccup. In any case you may simply not get it to work on the beta without resorting to reinstalling the entire OS fresh.

That being said it is very important that you report your problems as feedback to Microsoft. Odds are no human will ever see your feedback, but if by chance someone does then you are doing the greater Runescape community a favor.

I tried all of that and I was using Firefox as a browser. I have UAC off. I installed it to C: but it did not work.

Thanks for your help though
