    Moved to Technical Help.

    I would also delete this folder if you have not already. (it is hidden so you might need to enable "view hidden files and folders" in control panel/folder options)
    C:\Users\YourNameGoesHere\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Napoleon

    Ok,i deleted the napoleon file where the scripts and everything are,and i reinstalled it!
    Now it just launched 2 minutes ago,it shows the loading cursor,not the napoleon cursor,and its staying at the loading cursor for about 2 minutes now!
    Idk if its because its gathering the files for the game...

    Im gonna let it run overnight and see if it goes to the menu!

    PS:any ideas of why it takes a long time to load?

    UPDATE: Im running a disk fragmentation right now,I will let it run overnight,
    it may be that issue,Cause it doesnt crash or anything,just hangs at the loading screen.

    Post your dxdiag.

    Check your permissions through your security/firewall/router for Steam and Napoleon.

    Your cpu can be whats doing it for one as it is below spec after the third update.
    Your RealTek drivers could be conflicting. Uninstall them in Device Manager, then try it.

    I realize that. Just do it and if it works, I have the antidote.

    You can get updated RealTek drivers at www.guru3d.com or www.realtek.com.tw.

    Have you checked your permissions through your security/firewall/router? Have you tried it with your antivirus disabled?

    I don't know how to check the router but some do have their own hardware firewall from what I understand. This you would have to research.

    By any chance has Windows sneaked its firewall on?

    Ok,I misunderstood,I only have Windows Firewall!

    I looked at the firewall and steam and Napoleon Total War is on the exception list!

    One got better luck disabling something like Steam Community in Steam even in offline mode. May want to try that.
