RE: Unable to install

Kirk, I've had very little success running my old games in Win 7 or Win 7 XP compatibility mode. Total war, steel panthers, AOE, etc. What games do you have running under Win ??

RE: lost ser. number

<t> Tried all different ways to run the games.<br/>

RE: lost ser. number

Thanks for the help guy's but I cleaned all of my stuff from the computer before I gave it away. I'll look for an inexpensive used copy but first I have to get another tower with XP on it so I can run my old games. Not able to get them to run in XP mode within Win 7

RE: Win 7 64 bit

I loaded MTW on my Win 7 64 system in both Win 7 and XP mode. It will run some battles but wont run any campaigns. This is one game I really enjoyed playing! Are you running all of these games as administrator and how is that done? Is it complicated?

SP 2&3

<t> After a few years without being able to play these games on my XP machine I loaded Win 98 on a old machine and loaded the games. Neither game would start correctly. I played around some with the settings but still no good.<br/>

Looking at one of the palace's that Saddam had along the Tigris make's me wonder just how long it will take for some enterprising Iraki busieness man to buy it and open a resort! I would love to visit the region if they can ever get the crazies to calm down!!
