m2 on vista

[John-117]

hey guys,
unfortunately the theta mod for m2 crashed my old computer, so we got a new one from circuit city. awesome computer, halo 2 runs EPICLY on it. anyway, i gave up trying to reinstall rtw and eb, too much trouble. so now i want to install m2tw, but a little while after it begins installing, an error come up saying that a file is missing. i'll try again tonight and see exactly what it says. but anyway is there something im doing wrong? do i have to install it to a certain place or something? Where is Waldo?

Read the "Total War and Vista" thread stickied at the top of this forum first.

it is only for mods what are you talking about? tats for mods

It is not just for mods. There is info in there for just tring to get this game to work with Vista period. The rules are the same whether modded or original.

Now the usual questions that cause problems:
Even though it's a new rig, what are the specs?
Got any cd/dvd burning software installed?
Where did you buy the game?
Have you learned enough about Vista to make its security levels do what you want?
