• Error - Rome: Total War did not find DirectX 9, which is required for the game to run. Please reinstall DirectX.

  Original title: problems running Vista on Bootcamp DirectX.

  I have browsed the web for the last little while and cannot find any solution.

  I am trying to run Rome Total War on Vista, on bootcamp on my iMac 27 ". However, every time I start the game is active an error message saying "Rome: Total War has not find DirectX 9, which is required for the game to run." Please reinstall DirectX.

  I've been searching the net and have used some DirectX downloads (9) on several trusted sites, but the error message always everytime that I try to run the game.

  I have 'Run' 'dxdiag' and on the 'system' tab is says I have DirectX 11, section 'Information System '.

  I do not know where to go from here, any help would be greatly appreciated

  Have you installed this installation?

• Rome Total War (various expansion packs) and Windows 7 (64-bit)

  I'm a "bit of a pickle" as Windows 7 (64-bit) and Rome Total War, and if it should run OK.

  The game worked fine on my old XP machine but seems hit and Miss on W7 (64), esp, some of the expansion packs.

  I have the old RTW Activision and who installs OK and usually starts and runs OK. However, from time to time it will crash. I can play for hours sometimes and its OK, others only for a few minutes. So I tried the RTW patches to get the game to load 1.3. This is the first weird problem, the patch seems to only load in "Program files" and not "program files (x 86)" but the game loaded in both. Q1 - the patch should load in both?

  Q2 what version should I try to run RTW?, one in program files, or the one in program files (x 86)?

  Q3 who, if all the expansion packs should run? I have RTW - Barbarian Invasion (Sega) and RTW - Alexander (Sega/White Label). Barbarian Invasion appears to load but does not work (the first of all he missed mss32.dll, that I found and copied, but then) he said that he could not start Audio 3d. Alexander says that he cannot see the RomeTW.exe (1.5 or 1.6) she needs to find prior to installation. I tried to install the 1.5 patch, but he always says the same thing even if the patch supposed to install OK. Is this related to the query of the 1.3 patch above I wonder?

  The versions of the patches I have are old, obtained for the XP machine. Y at - it versions of specific patch of W7 (64) should I use?

  I looked at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=rome&os=64-bit, but this isn't much help (unless Ive missed something) as I cannot see RTW (Activision) at all and it seems to suggest RTW Alexander (Sega) should be OK (but no mention of the white label verson)

  Sorry if this all sounds a bit long and twisted, but I would get at least some of the games properly functioning and stable and for the moment, I can't.

  If not, is there a guide known on the www somewhere to explain how to install on W7 (64) and whose patches to load and when?

  Thank you

  EDIT - is something I just noticed, if I put the CD back to work in the W7 machine (64) and launch the game from the context menu, it also fails to start with "cannot initialize 3D audio" (or purpose). I was running the game from a shortcut that was created in the W7 boot menu, which goes from the version of files (x 86) program. And this shortcut, it starts and plays but sometimes crashes.

  Hey I know this is an old question but I just had the same problem. the problem is he's leaving moved in the x 86 folder programs and some of the patches there too. If all you have to do is to copy and merge all this program (86) in the folder program files (64-bit).

  Play now :) fun

• Rome: Total War: Barbarian Invasion - does not work in Windows 7

  I recently bought a new PC (Dell) with Windows 7 pre-loaded. My Barbarian Invasion game seems to install OK, but when I try to run it, I get an error message "failed to initialize 3D audio! I have no idea what that means or how to fix it. I tried to run the program in compatibility mode, but it makes no difference. Any thoughts? Thank you. Baggy.

• 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.
  You can also check the event viewer for any game related errors.
