Tradewind Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 Well, I apologize since this is about the 10,000 post i've seen on the issue but I cannot get Emperor to start up.I start it up, screen goes black, goes back to windows.I have tried the following:Many ReinstallsEMPENGINSTFIX10.zip procedureDisabling HyperthreadingRemoving Norton AntivirusTrying to run the game with different discsPatchingNot sure what else to do.

erjin999 Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Shame emperor doesnt create a log as it runs, telling why it dies so often ???AS for it being the 10,000th post, I think you are exagerating, its more like 8,579 at the moment ;)Sounds like the perfect scenario for the EMPENGINSTFIX10 file. Did you follow the instructions word for word ? Copy the files to your HD from CD etc... ? Sorry to ask again even though you have done it, but its what I thought would have solved it.Also, a lot of your motherboard drivers seem to be from 2001, can you get those updated ? Things like that have helped others in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tradewind Posted May 19, 2005 Author Share Posted May 19, 2005 I attempted to update the driver. As far as I know, there was only the one file, and it updated fine. However, after completly wiping Emperor from my system and reinstalling using EMPENGIN... it still didnt work. I tried playing it from multiple disks and from multiple locations (desktop, start menu, autoplay, Emperor.exe in the folder) all with the same problem.Thank you for trying.
