Nyarlathotep Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 I think it's refering to Microsoft Machine Debugger, as in MDM.exe. Check out your running processes and see if it's running... You can end task on that process without killing anything. Then try again.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyarlathotep Posted July 13, 2002 Share Posted July 13, 2002 Go to start => run and type there msconfig. Check on startup if MDM.exe is activated. If it is, make sure you unceck the box.Another thing that might cause this is due to the Safedisc protection. As of now, I do not have an answer yet, but will look into it for you..

Ivan Posted July 13, 2002 Author Share Posted July 13, 2002 There is no MDM.exe as well. But i ran this game properly in Win ME. Is it really related to safedisc problem ? Or that debugger is not Microsoft Debugger Machine ? .......It's really a difficult question.You're trying to solve my problem.And i'm really thankful ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyarlathotep Posted July 14, 2002 Share Posted July 14, 2002 About installation problems, try this from the Westwood FAQ (especially the program they include):"First, delete all contents of your Windows Temp folder. You can do this by clicking Start, Search, Files and Folders, then type 'Temp'. You should have one temp folder for Windows. Double click this. Select all files in your temp folder, then press delete. Depending on the number of files you have in that folder, this process may take a few minutes.Second, try copying the entire contents of the setup folder to your hard drive and then run the setup.exe from your hard drive. Make sure you still have the Emperor disc in the CD-ROM when you do this.Third, try to change IDE transfer mode from DMA2 or PIO Mode 4 to PIO 1 mode or standard mode. Most of the new drives are now shipping with DMA2 and PIO mode 4. This change can be done in System BIOS set up if the BIOS setup allows.Fourth, right-click on the "My Computer" icon and select "Properties". Then click on the [Device Manager] tab in the window that appears. Click on the "+" next to the "CD-ROM" listing. From whichever drive you're using to install, double-click on it (or click once and select the properties button below) to access the properties of the drive. Under the [settings] tab, make sure you turn *off* the checkbox for "DMA". If it is already off, you may want to try turning is *on* to see if that works too.Fifth, from the same settings window as the DMA, try turning *on* "Autodetect", if it's not already checked.Sixth, if the DMA switch doesn't work, or if it's not an available option for your CD-ROM, please check with the CD-ROM manufacturer's website for an updated windows driver. Sometimes in addition to the driver a company will offer firmware code updates to the actual hardware in the CD-ROM. Either of these have worked for other customers having the same compatibility issues.Note: for Windows 2000/NT users you may need to edit your registry. To do this, change the DMA setting for NT (as the DVD/CDROM isloaded as a SCSI(ATAPI)) device as below:-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesatapiParametersDevice1DriverParameterand change the key value from "DmaDetectionLevel = 0x1;" to..."DmaDetectionLevel = 0x0;".Seventh, you may attempt to install Emperor on another system to be sure that the CDROM isn't faulty. If so, you can find CDROM drives at your nearest computer retailer for as low as $20 US Funds. An investment that will ensure your ability to run programs developed by various software companies.If you are still experiencing installation problems, please see visit this link and download the update: ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/emperor/update/EMPENGINSTFIX10.ZIPThe directions about how to apply this update are included in the download. Make sure you read and print them BEFORE proceeding to the other files. The instructions are named emperor.txt. " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
