Hi,

I was not allowed to post in the apothecary, so I do it here.
I made a fresh install of MTW + VI on my new WinXP home
system.
Whenever I start MTW I experience the same odd behaviour.
I can start any campaign except the VI one.
When I get to the load screen the game crashes to desktop without even starting to load

My sys specs are

Win XP home
DirectX 9.0
AMD Athlon XP 3000+
512 MB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (latest drivers are installed)

Thank you

That must have been a bit of a dissapointment.

Are you using the original MTW CD or the Viking Invasion CD? I don't think the game can work properly if you play Viking Invasion and you're using the original M:TW CD.

Oh, and welcome to the Org http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

I'm using the VI CD. And, I patched the game to 2.01.

Thank you anyway

I guess I'll have to play the older campaigns until RTW is realesed.
