    Icon4 HELP PLEASE!!!

    Ive installed everything correctly (including the 7.0 patch) in a clean RTW folder.

    However, when i click on the RTW shortcut to start up, the loading screen flashes up for a split second, then it goes back to the desktop. Nothing happens!!

    Can someone please give me some advice!

    Cheers

    ps I've got vista

    Doublecheck that your disc is in... Also, try adding -ne at the end of the targetline of the shortcut.

    Thnx for your reply but it says the target is not valid. Oh and yes my disk is in

    If the target is not valid, then your install is most probably corrupted, or the shortcut is pointing to the wrong place.
    I hope you didn't install it in the c:\program files (or equivalent)-folder... This can screw things up. Also, do you have UAC enabled? That might screw things up when you install on the C-drive aswell...

    Yes I have UAC enabled and yes I instaled rome under program files. I guess your suggesting I reinstall outside program files and with UAC turned off then.

    Try launch it without UAC that could help.

    I dunno, but when I start up my CPU in the morning to enjoy some battles with a cup of coffee the screen turns black and does nothing. I just turn my PC off, and start up again and then it always works.

    Soz for the delay but I was tired (Im in the UK btw).

    No luck with UAC turned off though. Same problem as before.

    Lord Among Men:

    Did you reinstall everything with UAC turned off? Simply running it has nothing to do with it, UAC may hinder the installer to do what it's supposed to do...

    Edit: Also doublecheck the vanilla game was patched to the right version... should be 1.5 if its just RTW, and 1.6 if its BI...
