xIGuNDoCIx Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 I have just got the DVD version of ToW for Christmas. It installed just fine and I also applied the new Moscow add on/patch. It too installed fine. When I go to create a new profile it asks me to enter a new name. I choose a new name and click the "ok" button but no new profile is displayed. After trying to create a new profile 3 times the game crashes to the desktop. Any help would be grateful!

Sneaksie Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Vista doesn't allow the game to access it's own folder by default, so you need to run the game, setup and editors with administartive privileges ("Run as Administrator" in context menu).

xIGuNDoCIx Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Yes I am running it in "Admin". The game starts fine its just when I go to create a profile that it CTD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaksie Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Logging in as Admin is not enough for Vista to allow access for the program. You need to right-click on .exe file and choose 'Run as Administrator' from context menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xIGuNDoCIx Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Yes I know that. Don't worry the problem is fixed and it wasnt running the game with the "Run as Admin" command. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
