Always install and run as Administartor; make sure to patch in order. In your case 3.4.202 and then 3.4.19. Ignore the serial registry error after the installation; run in admin mode.

No, Nigel Askey is the person writing the books. A crazy amount of data to organize. He has done an outstanding job of it.
Good to hear you got the game working. [;)]

I have trouble to start game after what seems to be normal installation of TOAW 3 with latest patch 3419
PC specifications: intel core i7 / 2x geforce 970 / windows 7 ultimate SP1 / 64bits / enough HD, RAM memo, drivers etc.
Game can be activated from start menu or directly via opart3.exe but I just get black window (titled as it should be and so one) without any activity, music, buttons ... black, running in backround but without options to procede to main screen and beyond.
I tried all compatibility modes with no results. Any sugestions ? Thanx
Maybe, like me, you're trying to get it to run but the movies when TOAW opens for the first time are having a hard time running and
that's what's holding up the parade. Try renaming your movies so the program won't be able to find them and THEN being forced
to skip the movies you'll be able to get further into the start-up process. That's what I did.
EDIT: Never mind. I read all the way to the bottom and saw you fixed the problem already.
