Guest alphadreas Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 I'm trying to run emperor on my computer. Everything runs great. The auto update was successful. However, whenever I try to run the game, it brings up the opening window my screen goes blank and then cuts back into windows as though nothing happened.I'm running Windows XP Home Edition and I have the most recent version of Emperor. I have the newest drivers for my video card (Mobility Radeon 7500). I also have directx 9. Can anyone help me out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terror Posted October 15, 2003 Share Posted October 15, 2003 I'm glad you like it, unfortunately though, the chance is very low that there will be another dune game by westwood anytime soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alphadreas Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 It would be awesome if they release a newer version of Dune. With todays technology an all >wow< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT Killjoy Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 OK, so to play, i would have to uninstall NAV?Thats retarded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Mitten Posted October 16, 2003 Share Posted October 16, 2003 Re-Sgt Killjoy, do you have the full retail version of Norton or a trial version.If you have a full version contact Symantec.com support maybe they can help ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gryphon Posted October 17, 2003 Share Posted October 17, 2003 The reason why you in some cases have to uninstall Norton AV is that is conflicts with Dune emperor. You will need to uninstall both and then reinstall Emperor.It's not really a great thing, althouh more software applilcations are suffering from this .. .

If it is, we do have the fix with which you can run EBFD AND NAV... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
