Sorry. To clarify, I made exceptions for the .exes in Data Execution Prevention. It was never my Anti-Virus that was the issue (I use AVG). DEP apparently doesn't play well with your executables, no idea why.

Fixed it. (Got sick of waiting for Matrix). It was DEP. I created an exception for RUS and it ran... so I reinstalled ROP and did the same, and it's running as we speak. Might want to hang onto this tidbit for anyone with the same issue in the future!

Well I just discovered something that might help narrow the problem down: This is only occurring with AGE engine games. I've had Revolution Under Siege installed and working for some time and it now gives me the same exact error as RoP is. By contrast, Unity of Command, Harpoon Commanders Edition, a...

I opened a ticket last night and just pasted in what I've posted here. Their first attempted solution was to have me update my video drivers. Did so and rebooted and no joy, same error.

Phil, It's always a pleasure to be disarmed by a friendly, forthright response. You do the industry a great credit. I understand your annoyance with Gamersgate not permitting you to answer the critics, but if you think about it, a reply from someone financially interested in the product would probab...

Friends, I've lurked this forum since WWI was a glimmer in Ageod's proverbial eye and I'm a bit dismayed by what I see here. I own BOA and ACW however I have not purchased WWI yet due to all the trouble I see reported here. Phil, it seems to me very poor form to ask your costumers to behave as if th...
