(as per tech sticky, posting here first)
Win2K, Service Pack 4
Ati Radeon 9600XT
1 GB DDRRam
SoundBlaster sound card (it's pretty old!)
drivers are relatively up to date (ie, within 4 months)
RTW patched 1.3. Modded file to play as all playable factions. Playing as Germanic.
I've scoured the search, seen similar problems, but they were posted years ago...
...when I try to load any saved games, the whole game crashes to desktop when the load (red bar) is finished. There is no error message or anything.
I only had 8 saves, deleted all but 3, only 1 will load, but it crashes soon after the map appears. The other two won't load at all, crashing to desktop.
The patch readme says it fixes this problem. Though on the RTW splash screen, I don't see "ver 1.3" anywhere, so I'm only assuming it's actually patched.
I've uninstalled, then reinstalled the game, but no change. On one search, someone advised reinstalling (after a reformat) your entire OS. That aint happening.
I would appreaciate any help.
