I don't think Windows 7 is your problem. However if you still wish to run in XP or Vista mode, right click the launcher icon, click "properties" and go to the "compatability" tab.

That would just launch the launcher itself in a different compatibility rather than the game, wouldn't it?
Google suggests Win7 64 bits coupled with ATI is likely to be the culprit in some form. Out of 18 problem reports I've checked so far, all of them had Win7 64 bits and an ATI card...

Then it sounds like a driver issue. ATI has never been known for great drivers, but there is this "safe" driver list updated by coh players....|

As I said, due to the headache it represents with ATI I would rather avoid messing with drivers before exploring every other option, esp. as I play plenty of other games for which other drivers may or may not work. I'm using 12.4 anyway which is reported by most people trying it in this very topic as working so far.
Please, I'm really not looking for information on how to fix my problem here. Just mentioned it in case people were curious as to why I wanted to try a different compatibility. My bad I guess. I'm just interested in what kind of parameters can I input in the command line box within the NC Launcher.
Game client command parameters.

I had read that link, thanks nonetheless - and sorry if I sounded abrasive. I've had a frustrating weekend trying to get this new rig to work - and I know this is no excuse for flipping out on fellow players trying to help; again, sorry.
Still, I assume there are more commands because I've seen devs mentioning different ones. Perhaps I should open a support ticket.
I'd like to start CoH with Vista or XP compatibility (using Win7 64 bits) and I thought I could do that with the command line, but I can't even guess what to type and seemingly can't find that information anywhere.
(As to why I want to do that, I'm getting an "LoadLibrary Error 998" error when I try to start the game and one of the solutions offered was the above. I know there's also "reinstall your drivers", but given the gigantic PITA it has been to find ATI drivers working for my other games, I'm trying to explore other options before going for that.)
