I'm having a problem here...When I run the exe files, the splash screen comes up, but quickly minimizes. It then sits at desktop for about 45 second, before it brings up the following error: Game has caused an error in Game.exe. Game will now close."

My System summary is below, please help me out, as I am dying to play this game. Thanks

I have taken all the recommendations that I've found in page 26 of this and compiled them into a simple text document. Printing out the whole discussion board would have used too much ink...

That and I found it difficult to keep up with what I'd tried. This way I could print them out and check them off as I gave each a shot.

Hope it helps you too.

hello,

I've just purchased Emperor and have only made it through one campain (attraides). That was only after much fiddling, and is unrepeatable. Below are my dxdiag and easy.ea files. Please let me know if you need/want more info.

As for what I have tried..

see if i can remember it all.

Have tried higher (1024x768) to lower res (640x480) both 16bit and 32 bit. Turned TL&Multi both on and off on each. Have disabled trueform/smooth wahtever in the new ati card.

I have ran the sliders for vid accel each of the 4 steps. Have ran the slider for sound card each of 4 steps. Have also lowered and raised data rate conversion on sound card.

I've changed all the bios settings for agp speed/optimizaion settings.

I have run the game with the following switches: +W -w -c

as a last resort I have also tried to run the game with the network card disabled.

Have I missed the magic element ???

To all,

As you know I'm no Westwood employee. During the week I have a regular job to attend and in the weekend family live demands their share of attention.

In between, I'm trying to help you as much as I can, but please allow me some time. If I haven't posted here for a day, soesn't mean I have forgotten this thread. I'm only finished once your problems have been resolved.

Gobalopper, I'm currently also updating the FAQ. Once done, I will convert it to HTML and deliver it to you (hope that will simplify things :))

nclestink,

Try running the test in dxdiag.

For you also, try updating your motherboard/BIOS drivers.

You said you were able to complete one campaign. What exactly happens when you try to play now ?

Try running the game with the option -s behind the games shortcut.

Also, check for any cd burn software. If you have it, un-install it.

btw, nice videocard :)

Nyar, I have reinstalled 7 times in the last few days with varying setups to try and get it to work. I have used 3 different cd rom drives to install (all of the drives work). No luck. Also, I havn't added RAM to this computer for 6 months or so. A couple of other questions though:

When I install, it gets to 100%, and says that it is creating shortcuts. It does this for awhile, then kicks me right back to desktop, which ends up being an unusually low resolution. I have to restart at this point because the resolution is so low and I can't even view the taskbar. Changing the resolution by going into settings using the right mouse button is no use, because the mouse stops working. Anyways, after I restart all signs show that the game completely installed, but I'm not sure...

Do you think that the game could have conflicts with Windows ME that prevent it from working? If I really had to I could install win98, but I hope I don't have to go that far.

Thanks for your help.
