Why don't you just use the Ultimate Edition?
Because that requires Win 8, or higher. I'm using Win 7 32-bit. So I cannot use that.
I got it to working now though.
Following the link on ( https://realtapatch.tumblr.com/faq ) to ( https://forums.nrvnqsr.com/showthread.php/4745 ) I used the ( ****************************uc?id=0BwBw...xport=download ) link to download it.:)
Whoa wait what, since when? I JUST moved over from Windows 7 to Linux Mint last year and I'm basically the go-to hardware tester for Ultimate Edition, especially for use on older configurations, and I was doing a LOT of Ultimate Edition performance testing with OPs around 9 months ago - all of which were being performed on Windows 7 SP1. ...albeit 64bit Windows 7, but I really don't think that'd make a difference since the EXE itself is 32bit.
...wait, I think it might have something to do with the installer? The VN itself runs even on Vista SP2. You could either get a pre-patched copy from "places" or maybe the installer could work through Hiren's BootCD PE? (basically a live ISO for Windows 10 that can easily be launched from something like Ventoy on a USB drive or the like)
EDIT: I can at least confirm that the installer EXE itself will launch on Hiren's BootPE CD as well as WINE v8.x on Linux (Mint in my case) which could work as a solution for users that only have access to either Linux, a Steam Deck, or older versions of Windows, though I have not tested the actual patching process of the installer at this time.

How to do a NEW INSTALL (only needed if you don't have an older installation already!):
Visit ******************folder/DMsXCIoD#ubkrOC40vxEJDAslcnScow
Download the installer: "Fate/stay night [Réalta Nua] Ultimate Edition Setup.exe"
Run the installer (on Windows 8 or higher). It will ask you for the folder paths to the 3 official PC Realta Nua releases.
Follow the steps below on "How to update from an older version of Ultimate Edition".

Notice the part where it says "Windows 8 or higher"?
I do not have Windows 8, or higher.
Concerning the Ultimate Edition:
- The installer is compatible with Windows 8 and higher. This is because it's Python based, and Python dropped support for Windows 7 with their more recent versions.
- The game itself is compatible with Windows 7 and up.
- The game has a good chance of still working on Windows Vista.
- Windoes XP is totally untested with the current generation of engine plugins and more likely than not does not work.

Windows 10 can be downloaded from free here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/soft...load/windows10
Simply input your Windows 7 license key and it should just work
Check your PM box:
I sent you a direct message that should help.

I updated the installer in the mega folder to support windows 7.
If possible, can one of the mods lock this thread? The Ultimate Edition thread should be the go-to place for support (which also needs to be renamed to 2023 ^^)
Ah well I guess you can ignore my PM then since it was specific to Ultimate Editon and, as stated, Ultimate Edition running on XP is just a straight-up no-go. At the very least your issue spurred on Quibi to make the Ultimate Edition installer compatible with Win7 again, so there's that I suppose.
...I do just want to say that the era of PC hardware that commonly could run Win7, that being hardware from the mid to late 2000s, tends to be the kind of stuff that people give away for free (If I were closer, I'd actually be willing to throw some of my mid-to-late 2000s desktop PC hardware your way that I have way too much of).
Heck, there's even a chance that your own XP PC is new enough that it falls within that range and can be at least somewhat "brought up to date", whether on the hardware or the software side of things. I don't know how much interest you have in fiddling with PC hardware but it's one of my main expertise if you ever need any insight (e.g. are you sure your Win7 PC "shorted out" rather than a component just dying, e.g. usually the motherboard, power supply, or hard drive?)
