hello, I'm having a problem with Emperor: Battle for Dune in an AMD 1.6GHz, 256 RAM, win XP pro. I get the menu, I click on 'Play', I get the splash screen but then the game dies, no error codes, no nothing.
the strangest thing is that the EZ program in the first CD, that analizes the computer does not detect my AGP nvidia FX5200, not even my monitor ...

any help on this?

thanks in advance

Hi, just wanted to update this, as I finally got support from the game ppl.
they have a patch, this is what I received:

First try to update your game with the following patch:
ftp://ftp.westwood.com/pub/emperor/update/EMPENGINSTFIX10.ZIP

This game was made before XP and is not officially supported. I can offer some suggestions but I cannot make any promises.

I followed the instructions, replaced the files and now it is working.

good luck
