Patches for Shogun TW installed from Eras?

[Bonfire]

i also got total war era..

but my quesiton is this.

when i play the campaign on shogun total war. when i go to the throne room with either acepting or denying alliance request the game crashes.

along with 3-6 turns into campaign the game crashes.

and when im in battle at the beggin or at the end the game crashes but doesn't crashes like the others instead it needs a soft restart from the lovely button on the comptuter.

it displays a blue screen

i read the read me file and tryed to fix the problems by myself. but i thought i get this post in before i went to sleep and see if any genius minds could help me figure this out.



BTW im a veteran shogun total war player.
i had the orignal for 6 years. before moving and had to throw the game away cause of the many many sctrachs it had received over the years.

so when i saw ERA came out i was like OMG YES WITH THE MONGOLS AS WELL.
