This is a post by a guy names raul_duke on the Rome Total War Heaven Forum. Doing this fixed my problem. Hope it helps you.
"go to "C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\Runtime" and delete a folder named "0701". See if this solves the problem"

Suggest back up those files. There are a lot of .dll`s there.

Same problem.

But I think I just can't get my hands on a clean version of the 1.2 patch, even the one's given here !

Everytime I installe the 1.2 version on my old and just reinstalled version of RTW, it goes to hell, and the game won't start, even after the installation of EB and, worst, he accept no more the 1.3 or 1.5 patchs...

I have tried for several hours now, don't understand the problem.

If this doesn't solve your problem then you will need to look elsewhere for a solution. The problem must lie with the downloading of 0.7.2 and 0.7.4. Please make sure you are installing on RTW 1.0 and not any other version.

The above patch is tested and confirmed to be "good". If you have problems with it, then it's due to corruption ocurring during the download.

Why is EB running on 1.2 anyway, it happens the same for RTR and I can't understand why. Patch 1.5 is better, I can't understand.....

It is being ported to 1.5 as we speak.

Its just takes time to do these things Corinthian Hoplite both EB and RTR are volunteers doing what they can in between their individual commitments (School, Uni, Work) and in EBs case they are adding even more content and updating things already implemented.

I can attest to the fact that this file works!

Lately, I've been trying some of the RTW/BI mods. However, I bought a 6600 video card and increased my RAM to 2gigs, so naturally, I wanted to try EB out, again.

Everything works great, in spite of the fact that my computer is 1.6 ghz.

I've got to go to war, now. If anyone else is having trouble with the 1.2 problem, this fixes it ...
