    Default Game won't start, brings up internet cannot display this page???

    I have never seen anything like this before. I played earlier today and everything was working fine. I clicked on a historical battle and the game crashed. I tried to bring it back up a little while ago and I get one of those pages that says "This program cannot display this webpage." Webpage? I don't understand why its trying to bring up a webpage, not to mention the fact that my internet is working fine. I've tried all my other mods and even the vanilla campaign and they all do the same thing! Help!

    Sounds very odd. Do you have any submods installed or have you edited any files? Do you have the Steam version? Have you tried restarting your computer and Steam if you're using Steam version?

    I don't use Steam (I got it off the Gamestop online store) and I have tried restarting to no avail. I have FRoGS 2.1 installed but I tried running my other mods, the vanilla, and the Kingdoms campaigns and all of them yielded the same result.

    I tried a system restore and that failed too...

    Have you tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling? You might also want to run a virus scan and a registry cleaner like CCleaner if you haven't done so already.

    Since you're also having problems with vanilla M2TW, you may also want to ask in the general M2TW Technical help section. Maybe somewhere there has seen this problem before.

    My confusion has just reached a new high along with my relief. I click on Third Age today and lo and behold it works fine. I have literally no idea what happened or why it happened but I guess some things just fix themselves after all. Thank you for sticking with me though Stealth, greatly appreciated

    Good! I'm glad it's working now. Though to be on the safe side you still might want to run a virus scan if you haven't already done so.

    The virus scan came up negative. I think I need to put an anti-gremlin shield over my computer.

    Did you by any chance get your computer wet or feed any trolls after midnight?
