Need help installing

[ERE_Friend]

I have vista, and have tried installing EB like 5 times. The first time it worked for like 5 turns actually, and then I started getting CDTs. Every install after that it's always had CDTs soon after starting a campaign or battle. What am I doing wrong? I went back and reinstalled rome outside of program files, and I applied all the permanent fix things for 1.2. Do I HAVE to make a copy of my original RTW in which to install EB, or can I just use the original? I don't care if I can't use other mods or something. Any help greatly appreciated

EDIT: PLEASE DELETE THIS THREAD!!!! SORRY FORGOT THERE IS A TECH HELP FORUM!!!!!

Do a clean reinstall, this means uninstall the game and then delete the game folder completely.

After you have a fresh version of Rome, update it to 1.5 (if you have barbarian invasion, update to 1.6).

After that, copy and paste the total war folder into another section outside of program files, then, you install Europa Barbaorum inside that newly created copy. after that, patch the mod.

Try this.
