Bio Shock infinate not compatible with windows 7?

[Coz]

when ever i try to run bio shock i get a error msg saying "the version of this file is nor compatible with the version of windows youre running.checkyour computers system infomation to see whether you need a x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program and then contact the software publisher."

I would try reinstalling the game. I run it on Win7 with no problems at all. Let me know if it works :)

First, try checking the games cache integrity.

Go to the game library and right click on Bioshock Infinite, then click on Properties in the drop down box that opens.

In the ‘Properties’ box, click on the ‘Local Files’ tab and then click on the button marked ‘Verify Integrity of Game Cache.’

BSI and Win 7 has a histroy of issues, but it does work. You may want to take a look at the 2K FAQ for it. http://support.2k.com/hc/en-us sm

From the looks of things, it is having trouble reading which system you are running, 64 or 32. It seems confused.

I always shoot for the obvious.

1) Reboot your whole system
2) As above poster stated, check integrity...then
3) Shut down all your programs. Try again--there could be some weird conflict.
4) If that doesn't work, uninstall the whole thing then re-install. If it's stuck on the 32/64 thang that might get it to "read" it properly. If that doesn't work then...
5) Try changing the compatibility through steam
6) Try -dx10 in the steam launch

If none of those work...I would type the exact problem in google and see what shows up. Somewhere, of millions of players, some friendly nerdly computer whiz has fixed this problem :)

I had serious probs with getting nauseated in this game. That never happened before. Sure enough, someone had a solution so there is almost always someone on the intertubes with the exact same problem who has fixed it. I always shoot for the *easiest* solution you can find, first.
