    I'm having the same problem. After loading the game it closes and gives the same error message as posted above. Earlier someone mentioned a similar problem in which they changed the script and fixed the problem; do we need to do something similar to this and if so what?

    i deleted the line that it said was causing the error. on reload i got a new error from the same file. can't remember exactly what is was, but i'm not sure how to edit the problem away.

    I can't attach files so try this link

    http://domino.automation.rockwell.co...256E4C005C5471

    you may be asked to sign in before you can view it, just register with some name its only for website admin purposes.

    detach the two files MSICUU.EXE and MSIZAP.EXE to your PC then run msicuu

    good luck


    Now I've just got to get my video issues sorted as I can't see towns or characters on the strategy map . I could with Vanilla which is strange

    thanks for the link, i picked it up. this TW/EB error has led to me finding so many neat little utilities for my computer. out of all bad comes good and vice versa. i finally fixed the problem (i wont even get into how many times i uninstalled/reinstalled/downloaded/etc.) by using registry mechanic from download.com which works like msicuu.exe. then i installed a fresh RTW, then Patch 1.1, yes, i had to do 1.1 THEN 1.2. ran RTW made sure it worked, then installed EB. it finally ran.

    so much work has gone into EB and it is something else. thank you to all the EB team members. i've done some modding myself and i know it must have been a bitch. great work

    I have a problem in the same way, I think:

    I have the Gold Edition of RTW, who install RTW plus BI without letting the choice...so everithing is at patch 1.5 , cause of the addon.

    I create a copy of the repertory.
    Install EB.
    Crash.

    Okay, now I manually wipe out BI, reinstall EB.
    The game start ! Yes !!! Oh...no...the loading screen is the only thing I can have, the game doesn't load at all ( I've waited 25 minutes... )

    I assume the core of the problem is that I have the Gold Edition, who's not a "virgin" RTW ?

    Anyone can help ?
