Fahrenheit on Windows Vista/7/8/etc... it works

Newcomers... :)
Fahrenheit is an old adventure from 2005/06 by Quantic Dream, yep, the developers of Heavy Rain.
It works like a charm with Windows XP, but I found a lot of problems with Windows 7 and the installer said:

Fahrenheit Installation failed

The steps to install it correctly are:


1) Copy the content of the Fahrenheit CD into a new folder on your hard-disk, I created a new folder in the desktop called "ftemp".

2) Download the modified installer from here and replace the original installer with this in you "ftemp" folder.

3) Install Fahrenheit using Setup.exe from "ftemp" folder.

Try to start the game... if it works you have no problem.

Update your game version to 1.1 (if you have the 1.0 version) with this patch:

If you have some problem to start the game (like fahrenheit.exe is started, but nothing happens and your cpu is 100% load) google for "Fahrenheit v1.1 [EURO] Fixed EXE" and patch the game with this new patch.

Black screen on start after few seconds? Try to ALT+TAB and return to the game.
I suggest you to look at Video configuration in the Options section to fine tuning the graphic.

Delete the "ftemp" folder after the installation!!

Thanks to Hyperpac.de

P.S.: use a good icon for you desktop shortcut like

(it's bigger when you save it on your HD)

Ok, installed... next step is to PLAY (but now I'm busy with Drakan :P).
