Hi Schrullenhaft, I have Windows 7 64 bit and I DID NOT buy TOW from battlefront directly. I downloaded the SDK software and changed the directories ok but... It didn't work. It says in the Command Prompt: CF002 error. Any help would be appreciated. BTW an error code of #3000 occurs and it says current version of game will not work when you Right Click the shortcut. hellas1

Hi Schrullenhaft, Your directions solved my issue! Thank you sir! hellas1

Hi all, Didn't mean to double post but the time had elapsed to edit the 1st post! In the Knowledge base, I did read about changing the options.exe to "Run as Admin" and also to change africa1943.exe to "Run as Admin" I changed the options.exe but there is no africa1943.exe to change to make the Screen resolution changes "stick." Please help, hellas1

Hi all, I changed the Resolution on my game to 1260 x 1020 75 hz (or whatever, it's the highest resolution on the game but it is 75 hz.) TOW2 is not saving the Resolution changes. WHY? Any help would be appreciated, hellas1

Hi all, It appears that the laser probably went bad in my DVD drive. I bought a new one and it works fine. Windows media player plays music cds and Centauro installed and plays fine.! hellas1

Hi all, I tried Normal bootup I tried Selective bootup I tried Safe mode bootup I even unplugged the DVD drive, uninstalling it first in Device Manager, and then replugged it. Same issues. Nothing works. Something unusual happened though: Windows media player's console WILL eject a cd in the DVD drive!?! HP is my computer brand, and they haven't released any drivers for Windows 7. That might be THE issue, I don't know. I have also noticed that my DVD drive make a strange "zip" or "irk" noise first when trying to read TOW2 Centauro, but it never reads it at all in the end. This also happens with other PC game software and ALL music cds. I'm going to go to Best Buy and buy a new DVD drive and replace mine and then we'll see what's going on. Is it Win 7 ultimate doing it or my DVD drive dying? I suspect that my DVD drive is probably on it's way out, dunno. Thanks folks, hellas1 Any insights are still appreciated.

Hi Moon, I checked HP's website (I have an HP computer) for Win 7 drivers for my dvd drive, which can read cd's, and none were posted yet. The game cd spins but I can't even open the dvd drive to copy the .exe and run it that way. Do you think that this is a driver issue or a dvd drive issue? My drive does read certain disks, not others and Win Media Player doesn't work at all when I put any music cd in the drive. Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, I managed to get TOW & TOW 2 installed but Centauro won't install at all on Windows 7 I have DX11 and the current Realtek drivers for my HP machine along with the most current Nvidia drivers. Any hints? Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, Maybe I'm blind but on the main website for TOW2, no mention of a release date as such is given. Any time of release hearsay? Thanks and sorry if this is the wrong forum! hellas1

@Moon, Thanks man it worked for both games. hellas1 P.S. Is there a patch to make TOW's mission/campaign editor work for 64 bit Vista? Thanks again, hellas1

Hi all, Does anyone know how to run the Mission Editor on Windows Vista 64 bit? Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, I've managed to install the TOW mission pack 1 but the mission editor doesn't work. Any fixes? Thanks, hellas1

@ Moon, Thanks man, I'll try it for both TOW Mission Pack 1 w/Uber Patch and for TOW2. hellas1 P.S. I'll report back.

Hi all, I try to install Mission Pack 1 w/the Uber Patch as an Administrator under the Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit OS with NO success. The disk spins in the DVD drive then the UAC asks me to install the tow.exe and I wait and NOTHING happens. How do I install it? Heeellp! hellas1

Hi all, I have Windows Vista 64 bit Ultimate and am having this BIG issue: I got TOW installed but I can't install the TOW mission pack1/uber patch combo game to install over it. Any suggestions? Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, I recently upgraded my computer to Vista 64 bit Ultimate and TOW2 won't install at all! I tried installing it by "Run As Administrator" but nothing. It just hangs. Any suggestions or fixes please? Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, I was wondering: If TOW was based in Europe, per se, and TOW2 is based in Africa, Does it follow that TOW3 will be based in the Russia/Japanese fronts/areas? ALSO, I do hope that we can "mix" the upgrades that TOW2 is offering with TOW. It would make TOW THAT much better. Hmmmm....Comments 1C hellas1

Hi all, I have a Nvidia 7350LE on my Vista Home Premium. Will all 4 of the Combat Mission titles work? The demos for CMBB & CMAK & CMSF work. What about CMBO? Thanks, hellas1

Hi all, I'm thinking about buying CMBO along with CMBB & CMAK. One question: I downloaded the demos for CMBB & CMAK and they work on my Vista 32 bit machine! Does this mean they will FULLY work on my machine too along with CMBO? Sorry but I had to ask (I don't like blowing money.) hellas1

Hi all, I just bought Theater of War and enjoy it. I was wondering about this "Combat Mission" series title and the past titles as well. From what I understand the past titles used to be IT for 3d WWII strategy games. I looked at them and found the graphics abysmal compared to games today. I don't know what other games they might be compared to today if any Please, could you comment on the current status of this title and past installations of the game as well? Thank you, hellas1

Hey all, I bought the game over the weekend and installed it and love it. The ONLY WWII RTS like the Total War series. Such a different concept and tough to historically portray while being "doable" as a fun thing: Managing individuals instead of units, as in ancient and medieval warfare. I can only anticipate and watch TOW2 develop. I wonder if the next TOW (TOW3) will cover the Russian front or perhaps the Pacific. hellas1

Hi all, I'm new to these forums. I'm very fascinated by a WWII RTS that is similar to the Total War series. I've been thinking about buying it for some time along with Les Grognards. I have 2 questions, since I've only tried the demo: Did this "Uber" patch fix a lot of problems thus bringing the game to "Awesome" status? If not, How would you rate the game and why? I've seen the TOW2 trailer, nice btw, and was wondering if that game will add anything to TOW game play, AI or graphics wise? Thank anyone who responds! hellas1
