Good News (or not, big problem, need help!!!!!!!!)
Good news everyone. As long as I am not a zombie due to swine flu by tomorrow I should have my new laptop tomorrow morning and be on ESO by the evening (not sure if it has a mic or not) Look forward to getting some games in and hopefully starting up my own VOD's with the Aztecs in a few months once I get my eye back in.

Re: Good News
You're not a zombie yet? And just when I finished cleaning out my Mauser...
Glad to hear you'll be back on, buddy! GL HF.

Whenever I go to install TAD, I get this error:
AOE3 and TWC installed fine, this box just appears at the stage before I enter the activation key.

Re: Good News (or not, big problem, need help!!!!!!!!)
TBH I would be more worried about your wallpaper.........
On a serious note, vista can be a little funny installing AOE, try googling for a fix, I can't remember what I had to do but it was a strange proccess.

I have tried everything guys, it is just not happening. I am at my wits end, I have wasted about 2 and a half hours today trying to get TAD to load. I am not buying a new CD and it is not even that scratched

Re: Good News (or not, big problem, need help!!!!!!!!)
try ringing a vista help line if there is one? otherwise just Google the hell outta your problem. After 8 re-installs I finally managed to get Empire:Totalwar up and running after the new patch killed it for me.

"Error Loading PID Generator DLL. the dll could not be found"
you might wanna be careful since ur gonna be touching windows files.
Edit: from what i understand from that post is u should first check if u have mfc42.dll in C:\Windows\System32
