Once again, I can see the future.

This thread will be moved to Dune Editing.

Thats odd, but techXPert here to help.

Two things to try for now.

1) Go to the Emperor.exe file, in C:Westwoodemperor

not the shortcut.

Right click on it, go to properties.

Click the compadibility tab, check the box that is unchecked saying.

|=| Run this program in compadibilty mode for:

Then choose Windows98.

Try it now.

2) Reinstall the game, it may be a corrupt file.

E) Post you DXDiag.txt as an attachment for Nyar to look at.

E) Tell us what happens, we will go from there.

;D
