Cannot Start or Load any RTW Campaign, AT ALL
Alright, here's a problem that I've been faced with for the past week or so:a
Every time I go to start (or load) a campaign in RTW, it crashes to desktop. I have no idea why, and I know that it isn't a fluke, unless my install discs are corrupted now. Here's how: I've uninstalled, reinstalled, and patched multiple times over the past week, and each time, it happens. The only time it doesn't do this, is when I run the game immediately after patching it to 1.5, but on the next play, even five minutes later, it crashes again.
Here's the full Windows error report:

If anyone can help me with this, I will be forever grateful. RTW is one of my favorite Total War games, and it really depresses me that I cannot play it.

Have you ever been able to play on this computer?

Yes, I have. This is the only computer that I've had it on for about 5 years.

Windows Vista (2008), but, like I said, I've been playing this game on this laptop for years. It's only now, recently, happened.

It could be the laptop is wearing out. Nothing new.
Out of curiosity, when was the last time you cleaned out the case? Especially the vents, fans, heatsink(s)?

Just last week (the day before I started having the troubles...) I try keeping my computer in good condition. o~o
By any chance, this idea popped into my head a few minutes ago:
A long time ago, I used the Rome Total Realism mod, and after I uninstalled it, did a system wipe of Rome Total War. Could, if by any chance, left over folders (despite being in an entirely separate program file) be the problem? Because that is the only thing I can think of anymore, really.
