    Hi, I recently installed EB, followed the instructions precisely, and have managed to get it to load up to the main menu screen. My problem is that the game crashes to desktop when I try to start a new campaign after picking out all the options. I've looked all over this thread for possible answers and my suspicions were realised by Step 7 in the install guide and a later post about No CD file usage.

    My problem is that I have an external DVD drive. When I try to run the game, it tells me that I have some sort of emulation programs installed (referring to my DVD drive) and that I should disable/uninstall them before playing. As a result, I'm forced to use a No CD file to play R:TW and all it's expansions (not like I'm stealing the game, I bought Total War: Eras fair and square).

    Is there anything I can do about this issue that doesn't involve buying a fresh copy of R:TW (which would be a waste of money) but that involves me playing EB?

    Ok.

    Please bear with me as I am totally computer illiterate. But how do I make a copy of vanilla RTW 1.5?
