i had problems straight away, so did a full reinstall of RTW then BI. it seems ok now.my version now says 1.4[BI] not tried RTW yet. i think my problem was with the unofficial patch. which caused units to freeze on BI games, slow right down and when i left the game/saved it the pic from that game appeared overlapped on the RTW start up seqence [weird]??.the best bet is to do a clean install of RTW then BI after. i also had problems uninstalling RTW and had to manually remove some folders left over. got an error message when uninstalling.
i assume my problem was with the unofficial patch. and i have read the manual and it says installing the original patches from RTW onto the BI version will cause problems.so the reality is that BI patches RTW up anyway. if you had RTW unpatched BI would patch up to latest version. the thing is in [my opinion] even if your game has been even slightly modded you will get problems.

or it may be something totally unrelated[my problem.]


anyway it seems fine now.[hopefully]
