Oh c'mon! Answers please. Not that i'm in a hurry to play the campaign, but removing the game due to these problems have crossed my mind couple o' times.

Well, if no other help is given, then may i ask 'Save games' for factions? Just to try them out if they run properly.

Problem update!

Lost my nerves with my computer the day before yesterday, and restored the whole C: from my computer = All programs deleted and lost, but the system now runs almost 60% faster. So, i reinstalled RTW Gold, EB and tried to run it. However, the CTD now comes before the main menu.

When i restored the PC and restarted it, the NVidia complained that one of the SLI-cards stopped working, and the other cards started to work Independently or something like that IIRC. Could this be the problem?
I tried to run the EB with the lowest settings, and still it won't 'budge'. Vanilla and BI works fine; Even faster than before.

Again, same problem as I had. Does it CTD when the music from the main menu is about to begin while loading EB?
Vanilla and BI worked perfect for me too.

I solved it with the link I gave you.

Decrypted the drive, ran that weird test and set the page file (max.) to 900 Mb, but still it won't work!
And no, i've heard no music when the CTD occurs.

But, i have a clue. I tried to use the 'run'- command in the 'start' panel for the EB quickstart; It didn't worked. However, when i did the same to the RTW quickstart, it ran the game as normal! So my suspicions now concentrates to the target command line (Single Player quickstart...Advanced...quickstart...target?[It can be something else since my computer's language is finnish]).

The line i have is: "C:\The Creative Assembly\EBTrivialScript\EBTrivialScript.exe" -s ebconfig.xml -runeb -type "Single Player". Should it be somewhat different?
