yes you need to use the hold command.

You should really think about upgrading your system if your still using an AGP card.
Click on this link>
Exerts:
AGP Aperture Size: This setting determines the allocation of physical RAM for use by an AGP graphics card, should it become necessary. A better description can be found in this AGP Aperture Size FAQ. To decide how big it should be keep in mind the following: (1) keep it above 32MB, as an Aperture Size below 32MB will disable AGP texturing - reducing your performance greatly in games; (2) the greater the amount of Video RAM on your graphics card, the smaller this setting should be; (3) Values between 64MB and 256MB show no real performance difference; and (4) Using larger values can result in more crashes such as General Protection Faults and potential texture corruption. So with all of these in mind, I recommend an Aperture Size of 128MB for most AGP graphics cards. If you have an older 32MB graphics card, set the Aperture to 256MB. If you experience a large number of crashes or texture glitches, try lowering the Aperture to 64MB regardless of your Video RAM amount.

Drivers 7.6 in this first photo the water is actually set to low. I also have it set to on only if application specifies.

just turn the water to low and everything else leave where the towetup.exe sets it at.

Run the TOWsetup.exe turn water to low. turn off EAX. if that doesn't work try running the 1.4exe thats in the Theatre of war directory. Remember to post with your system information in the signature file so we know which computer spec we are dealing with.

THe game has low expectations of running on a mobile system Maximum setings:
*** The following intergrated Video Chipsets and Video Cards are expressely NOT supported:
Mobile Intel® 900, 915, 925, 82945G or 945GM/GU Express Chipsets
Nvidia GF440MX and earlier
ATI Radeon 9200 and earlier The following intergrated Video Chipsets has been shown to result in poor performance
ATI Radeon Xpress
Minimum: * Windows Vista: Windows Vista (32 bit) is not "officially" supported in this release although we have tested with it and have found that if you have the latest, non-beta drivers for your video and sound card installed, it should work.
** Windows Vista 64bit: Due to an incompatability between Vista 64 bit and Theatre of War, the Mission Editor will NOT function in Vista 64 bit.

yes replay them you cant use those saved with the new patch it doesn't up date them. You can however copy the campaign missions and place them in the single player missions. There is a thread on this but forgot where
-
no go into your file where you have the game installed and run the 1.4 exe thats in there.Originally posted by Leger Des Onheils:After installing the new patch yesterday I’ve had a couple of lock-ups during missions while before the patch I had hem just rarely. My main question for now is if I can install the Tow_1.4.exe over the patched version or do I need a fresh install?
cheers.

Patch is out?Originally posted by Buret:Complaining won't help, just put maybe some pressure on the developper team.
For sure, having awaited so much for so many problems is a bit frustrating.
Nevertheless, personnaly i won't play the game until a valuable patch is out(and the fact that i have time to play...)
Just hope it won't take as long as the development...
I won't blame each day on several threads on the forum as many people are doing (it seems that it became a 'fashion')
But my reaction is that i won't preorder CM shock forces as i wanted to do it before.
I will wait for the game to be released, played and tested by the communauty before rushing on the preorder button as i did for TOW.
To summarize, i'm waiting for the patch, and will be more cautious on purchasing games even if there were created by talented companies such as Battlefront.
Only people doing nothing, makes no error.
I think we are all a little bit responsibles for problems in the game, as we were putting each day more pressure...do you want to repeat history...?
:confused:

Looks like its time for a big upgrade?Originally posted by EZ:Thanks for help, Its not TOW that’s the problem its my video card going bad. Game was running fine for 2 weeks then started acting up, same problem is happening in some other games I have installed. @#%# happens.
