Hello,
Have a athlon xp also and coming up with the same problem and same windows error box. No log generated, turned the intro off and turned log on only ini. changes made. Installed base game and all patches in order, in same directory. It plays fine with the updates until the beta [the new graphics is what made me reinstall the game]. will the alpha 3.4.0.191 fix my issue or will something else?
thank you for any help you can provide.

Budd,
Try running the Opart 3 - Slow.exe file in the c:/Matrix Games/The Operational Art of War III directory. There will be a link from the start menu on the release build.

Thank you Sir,
For your quick reply and solving my problem. I haven't played yet but it did start up and i started a scenerio. The new look is great anf i love those roll over tips, very helpful on the 47 inch hd tv using as a screen :-] . I have a couple of questions 1. as with the graphics do i also have a choice of icons included with this install? 2. I'm afraid you have spoiled me with the rollover tips which i can see great, is there anyway to enlarge the text or do something with all the info boxes you have to read in game, there very hard on the eyes, i'm using binoculars from the couch at this time, [;)] . Again thank you sir for your efforts.

I formatted Windows partition and re-installed Windows 7 and TOAW III with the recent updates.

Now the game starts and main menu is visible. However, the scenario list is empty. Even if I select default scenario directory, the list is still empty. Scenario files are there in the correct locations.

I forgot that you must select subfolder from scenario-directory ....[:(] Everything works now after reinstallation...
