Medieval total war

Medieval total war will not play on my vista but will play on my xp. What should I do? Y at - it something that I can download to make

does it work?

... You don't need Windows 7... Why buy an expensive overrate and OS for a $20 game? Medieval total war can play on vista... just right click on the game icon > click Properties, under compatibility, click on run this program... blah blah and select "Windows XP (Service Pack). and at the bottom, click on run this program as an administrator.  Check on here and tell me if it works, if it's not I have afew more things flat.

  • Satellite P20 - 504 shutting down / crashing during playback of Medieval: Total War

    Salvation;

    I run a game program, (Medieval: Total War) that sporadically stops or freezes / crashes my laptop. Sometimes it works OK and sometimes it crashes.

    I think it might be a graphic driver problem nVidia, even if I run other programs of game with higher spec requirements.

    Is there any where on the Toshiba site, I can actually download new drivers? I searched the Toshiba site and found that there is some possible updates but no installation to actually achieve the download itself... confusing.

    Any help is appreciated.

  • Medieval Total War (Activision)

    I try to play Medieval Total War, but when I try to start a new campaign, the game crashes.  I am using Windows 7, 64-bit.  I tried to use older versions of Windows, but nothing works.  The game was played before (for many years).  Any suggestions?

    By this link its not compatible with your operating system. I check the website and see if there is something they can suggest. If you did the compatibility mode not much more to suggest other than see if there are patches.

  • How can I get Medieval 2: Total War to play on Windows 8?

    I get a message that says: "this application is not compatible with the operating system installed. Please upgrade to Windows 98SE, Windows 2000 or more. »

    Is it possible that I can make this compatible game so that I can play the game on my computer? It worked fine when I ran with Windows 7.

    -Thank you

    Hey, if I had this problem too

    This is how I fixed it

    install the game (if you haven't already done so)

    Perform a clean boot ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 )

    and then undo all

    then right click the game

    Click on "RUN AS ADMIN".

    then run normally
    IF YOU HAVE KINGDOMS

    which may or may not work, so if it doesn't work and it says: "cannot find kindgoms.exe".

    then run normally

    If you are having problems with the THIRD AGE: TOTAL WAR

    then do this

    do everything until the handle he leaves normally

    Reach

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \SEGA\Medieval II War\mods Total

    or if its steam then

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Steam\SteamApps\common\Medieval II War\mods Total

    then change the name of the game you play less, IE. Americas

    change for americas2

    then change Third_Age_3 in the Americas

    (It's not permanent, if you want to play Americas even once, go and return Americas third_age_3 and then return to americas2 americas)

    There operate normally. I hope this has helped

  • the total war Rome and the barbarian invasions installed smoothly, perform perfectly on xp, but not at all under windows 7

    just bought the total war rome and expansion (barbarian invasion) today.  I installed the game and expansion on my computer laptop windows 7 and my the family computer that runs on windows xp.  on my computer laptop windows 7 installed, gently, but the game will not run at all... which means that I click on the shortcut on the desktop and nothing happens.  the only way to open the game is by going to my computer, select the cd drive and then opening the romeTW.exe file.

    However, this makes me only to the main menu of the game and this is where the real trouble begins.  Once there, I click on "play rome total war" or in the case of the expansion pack 'game barbarian invasion' which instead of leading to the game itself it just crashes me to the menu let me back at the office level.

    on the side, I met NONE of these problems on the computer of windows xp from my family.

    I tried to make the game compatible with windows xp (service pack 2), which is recommended and Windows xp (service pack 3) I even gave a shot, but none has made a difference.

    I now try to uninstall and install the game for a 3rd time and this time I will try to install under xp compatibility.  If you could please leave a message instructing me on how to do that would be extremely useful

    Thank you

    Hi the skins53,

    You may be using a Windows 7 64-bit operating system. Rome total war - barbarian invasion is not compatibile with Windows 7 64 bit operating system. However, it is compatible with a 32-bit version. Click here to check.
     
    If you use a 32-bit Windows 7, try to right click on the romeTW.exe file and run it as administrator and check what is happening.
