Okay, I admit that dialog is just a little confusing. I've made it so that it just doesn't let you click the install button instead of popping up a warning all the time. Try again.

Yes its doing so. After klicking the "ok" Button a lot of times i am able to Install.

the Warning message is: "C/Documents/Desktop/RomeTW-BI.exe was not found.
Please verify your Rome Total War directory exists, and that Barbarian Invasion is Installed"

what can i do now? the BI exe is on my Desktop.....

Edit: if i download the new version, its Installing like it did before without any warning message and with the same "select item from the list" thing.......

Why did you install rome total war and barbarian invasion to your desktop? That would explain a lot of things going wrong.

Here is what you're supposed to do. Since you have windows XP, all you have to do is:

1) Install RTW (just use the default directory)
2) Install BI (just use the default directory)
3) Install the BI patch
4) install EB 1.1 (USE THE DIRECTORY THAT RTW INSTALLED TO IN PROGRAM FILES, something like c:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\, not EB's default directory--that directory is for VISTA users running under high security mode)
5) install EB 1.2
6) Run my installer (just use the default directory. if everything went well, the button is not greyed out)

Huh, I wonder why it looked for it there. No matter, I'm glad it finally worked out for you. In fact, your issue was the same as one a lot of other people had, so I recommend that people give the installer a second chance if there were unable to start a game properly.

Hi! Awesome work you've done here!!!

Forgive my ignorance, but...

I am a Vista User. I've been running EB on vanilla for quite some time, and it's been working beautifully. Naturally, I disabled User Account Control (evil incarnate) and gave EB all clearances etc.

So I uninstalled all that recently, and now I'm starting from scratch.

So you're saying that I SHOULD install RTW in Program Files? Or will your BI installer work if I just put RTW in C:/ in my own folder?
