Cant use X-Fire/Vent in game

[Larabeast]

I would like to start off saying I have vista . Okay, when I start the game I hit alt+control and the xfire in game box pops up. After I have brought another window up once I can not do it again. So if I have ventrilo open with the key E to talk, After I hit e once it wont work again and I cant alt tab or minus the game down. My only solution being is I make it so you don't have to push a hotkey to talk on vent and it works fine. But I am still un-able to use x-fire while in game. Can anyone help with my situation? I've tried changing program's priorities.

I had the same issue with Vent.... I couldn't get the hotkey function to work. When I use vent, I have it set to where I just talk, and it goes on. You can adjust the sensitivity so the mic doesn't turn on for ambient noise or game sounds at your house.

 

I've had problems for years with using xfire in game... Sometimes it worked. And sometimes I could never get it to work, and you're not the only person I know of that currently has prpblems with xfire working in game..

 

Sadly, my best suggestion is using 2 monitors, so you can simply open console to deactivate the game and mouse over to xfire. It's what I currently do, and it works flawlessly. But I'm sure someone else will have a cheaper suggestion

I could be way off here but, You might need to right click on the desktop icons of the Xfire and Ventrilo and click a check mark to "make compatible with Vista" in the properties box. Thats what fixed my friends ET on Windows 7. Perhaps changing the Toggles for xfire might work too? like Scrrl Lock + X instead of Alt + Ctrl. another route may be to Try downloading an ET Minimizer to get from game to desktop quickly too. I don't know very much about Vista it's new and erroneous

Run Vent as admin, it'll work.

As for xfire, try to change 'chat in game' to ctrl + z.

Vista is outdated now that W7 is out. I think you mean selecting XP compatibility mode for the program. That would only be if it wouldn't work. There is no vista compatibility mode. I am going to try changing x fire chat key. If I get that to work I can leave my mic open.

Right click vent > Run as administrator.

 

It worked for me.

 

Not sure about xfire though

I have a problem with xfire too now, it's very strange.

If I register, I have all the things good filled in.

But it says that I the code didn't match, but I typed it good.

I don't understand, maybe someone could help me.
