I can't get S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shadow of Chernobyl to work on windows 8.1 64-bit. When I installed the game (6 days ago) it worked fine. It worked without any issues for several days. Then today when I boot my machine and try to start the game, it doesn't start end show a dialogue box that says:
"The application is not compatible with the installed operation system. Please upgrade to Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 or better."
I have attached a screenshot.
1) Why does the game suddenly stop working?
2) How do I make the game work again?
I don't understand why it doesn't work anymore. It worked when I installed it. It worked after a reboot, and after then next reboot. Not it doesn't work. The only thing I have done since I last played the game on windows 8.1 64 bit, was to install new nvidia drivers 337.88 for my graphic card (uninstall old ones, reboot, install new ones, reboot).
