    Default screen problem, resolution, followed by CTD

    Hi,
    great job, I like the CoW reworked.. but i didnīt have the opportunity to check it completely

    My problem started after installing v1.4.4 form this location: http://empiretw.ru/board/index.php?s...2&#entry527802 - FULL ENGLISH ver. Call of Warhammer: Total War" МOD v. 1.4.4 with music!!!

    I followed all instuction, deleting files, including the descr. files....

    1/ CoW installed properly
    2/ game has been launched, nice intro but it starts windowed..
    3/ i verified the option for the launcher - start program windowed/full screen
    4/ started again - again windowed
    5/ I pass to the graphics options IN the game changing resolution - it helps (now, the game runs full screen but..) the cursor doesnīt correspond its "true value" (i mean, on the screen the cursor looks run fine, but when i made some choice - i just couldnīt - the "true value" of the cursor was like 10 cm somewhere else... F.E.
    you want click with your mouse on this cross " + "

    but "true value" of your movement and click was like somewhere ... on the x following...


    " x "
    so, even getting out from the game was like playing "catch the mouse which is hiding"
    6/ starting game again - runs full screen now, cursor corresponds with its real position... now..
    7/ i wanted start campaign, then only a battle, the game says something like - make your choice - and dont let me play anything
    8/ reinstall (thinking what happened)
    9/ game starts windowed
    10/ check the options, etc to the point 6/
    11/ i found a descr. file for download - it repairs the "blind menu" problem
    12/ campaign started
    13/ a city besieged, i run the battle, but:
    the battle map (automatically, during the loading screen) changes its resolution
    14/ it means, the cursors doesnīt serve me for nothing - as described above...
    15/ also, my generals speech has no sound...
    16/ i damned hell and heaven till i managed exit the battle (due the "false" cursor )
    17/ CTD follows.. no campaign map...

    any ideas??
    and iīm sorry, my language is quite brute but i try my best

    You can pretty much skip all of that with my installation. Do the UAC stuff here from step 3 onward (vital after a previous installation) and then install my version. End of problem. Skip that, you got XP.

    I only saw that you have XP after I had posted the UAC\Virtual Store thing. It is not applicable for systems with XP. No need to do anything, but to be on the save side, remove your old CoW installation before installing mine.
