I AM RUNNING FROM A DISK. I DON´T KNOW WHICH VERSION IT IS BUT THE ART.NUMBER IS PF0927/US2 AND YEAR 2007. NO IDEA WERE THE FILE COMES FROM, BUT IT IS A NEW COMPUTER WITH NO GAME INSTALLED YET.iainmcneil wrote:Sorry you are having problems. What version of the game do you have? It sounds like your installer is corrupt. Are you running from disk or a download?
THCGWoR is not one of our folders so where is that file from?

I bought the disk in USA. The version is in english, the manual reads 2007 cdv Software entertainment USA developed by Slitherine Software UK Ltd.iainmcneil wrote:Which publisher label is on the box? What language version is it? What do you mean you have no idea where the file came from - did you burn this disk or buy it?
You ask why the message that appears when the installation fails reads THCGWoR. Idon´t know why but that is what it reads.

Sorry, you are right the disk reads Great Battles of Rome and the file is THC GBoR.
But what is strange is that I can install it in Windows XP without problem but not in Windows Vista.

Is it possible that the McAFee Antivirus be the cause of the problem?iainmcneil wrote:The game runs fine on Vista so it must be some administrator privaleges that are required on the Vista machine during installation? I can;t think what else it could be if the disk works fine on your other machine. Maybe its just not reading in the drive on the Vista machine.
