    ok, thanks for all your help guys, vista is hard to work with lol. can i make a "tw" folder on the desktop, and when reinstalling rtw 1.5, can i have install to that folder? if not, what folder is good to use other than program files?

    I don't know a thing about vista, but the desktop is probably still the worst place for a huge mass of data like EB. Put it somewhere else.
    For example, create a folder C:/Rome-Total War (or better yet D:/Rome-Total War if you have a drive D). C:/crazystuff or C:/idontknow will work, too.

    Damn, becuase i just installed it and everything else into a "tw" folder i put on the desktop. Now i have vista, and after installing it i was able to start it up. Havent played for very long yet, but could putting it on the desktop cause late game ctds?

    I don't know how Vista handles files on the desktop, so my answer is "maybe". C:\idontknow sounds like a good suggestion, but I'd probably use c:\EB instead.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.
