Star Wars: Empire at War - Forces of Corruption Message Board  

everytime i try to run the game, crashes before start up and i get this exception pop up. starting to get annoying right now. ive checked the other threads and their solutions, just doesnt seem to work! im running on a gateway p-7811 fx. 4 gb memory, 9800M GTS, 2.26 ghz dual core CPU. Vista 64-bit. EAW works perfectly, but FOC is frustrating me!! any ideas?

it happens to me too i start the game and it crashes,i have vista 32-bit nvidia ge force 9800 gt 2.8 ghz quad core ,4 gb ram ,but the normal empireat war works perfect

yeah i tried several fixes but nothing works!

try and patch FoC and update your drivers for GFX cards

i have windows vista 64 bit - nvidia geforce 9800m GTS - Intel core dup 2.3 ghz - 4 gb ram. from what ive read on the threads EAW works fine one this config (it does with mine) but FOC has an issue with any ram over 2 gb :-/

thers a fix google here,empireatwar.filefront.com/file/FoC_Vista_Patch;96810

Currently running EAW & FoC on Win 7, 32B, 4Gb Ram, with no compatibility active, 8800 GTS with latest drivers. Works beautifully.
