Hi,

Halo: Combat Evolved  is not compatible with Windows 7:

I would suggest you to try in compatibility mode and check if that helps. Run the software in compatibility mode by following the steps in:

Refer to “Make older programs run in this version of Windows” : http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

a)   Right-click the shortcut icon for the program, and then click Properties.

b)   On the Compatibility tab, click to clear the Run this program in compatibility mode for check box.

c)    Alternatively, on the Compatibility tab, select the compatibility mode Windows XP Service pack 3.

d)   Click OK.

e)   Start the program by using the shortcut that you just modified.
