    I have tried to install EB on a clean RTW gold 4 times now, and I have tried about everything else I could find in the forums as well. But I have not tried the validation tool, so I will do that and let you guys know what transpires. Thanks a bunch.

    There's also a number of other suggestions in that thread that have helped people in the past. You should try all of them.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

    Make sure you installed EB to The Creative Assembly instaed of Activision if you have RTW gold.

    This was my problem exactly a few months ago. I was desperate since I could find anything that I possibly could have done wrong. And I had downloaded and installed it so many time I was sure I couldn't have a corrupt download or a faulty install each time.

    It was eventually this thread that saved me

    Especially number 2 (which is explained lower in the thread) helped me out.
    And now I can enjoy EB! And what an enjoyment it is!

    Good luck!

    So I ran the diagnostic. These were the results.

    You seem to have a corrupt install. There are changes to files, or some are missing.
    However, these may be conscious changes you have made, to remod EB. See below for details.
    ==========
    Missing file: .\data\packs\patch_1.pak
    Changed file: .\data\credits.txt (expected checksum 632aad51f3a61c5da34140e4fa28800b, got b0a7954002857cc32e253a5e08b5c194)
    Changed file: .\data\descr_items.db (expected checksum 05785f752f89ae7f82ffd4631ddafd2c, got 244bf4dbabea7646706611eaeabe6d56)
    Changed file: .\data\export_descr_advice.txt (expected checksum f29c56a6d711e3ebb70b855365500de8, got 97794093b86abe2d5ebab1920b9c3363)
    Changed file: .\data\fmv\atvi_spinning_logo_640x480.wmv (expected checksum 7e15895ba7a723535f55e4deb91c085b, got e9ac1729af2fdeffe8365a567cd76b23)
    Changed file: .\data\menu\splash.tga (expected checksum a57cc84af0e6c1300577336f17e0bfd6, got d1329cf835f69e6dff4b4cc0cb08d144)


    I dont know if that helps. Also I have tried EVERYTHING suggested. I have now installed the game 8 times.
    I have tried everything suggested on Bovi's list except the patches which I am doing now (so far with no positive result)
    Please Help!
