Is Empire Earth DEAD on Windows 10 ?

Post by AlphaColumbia »

Hello! Since early 2000's, Empire Earth has bee one of my top games, and i still loving it so much. But now, since I've updated my PC to Windows 10, it freezes everytime. I tried everything. I dont know what to do... Since theres a lot of people like me, cant we just search for some programers to fix it? or... make an Empire Earth adapted to the new PC's and Operaive Systems ? Is there any patch for this...? :'( Im so sad that i cant play it anymore... nor my friends, etc.

thank you guys, and thank you for keeping this comunity alive :)

I personally updated my computer from win7 to 10 two days ago. Got the same problem. Not sure if it was because I updated the drivers or because of win10 (I did both at the same time). I've now gone back to win7 and no issues anymore.

Maybe try some older drivers? I however did not have patience for this and going back to win7 took only 30 min or so.

If you need help with something you should maybe ad your entire system specs... Just saying. I have a win 10 PC with a GTX 980Ti here and it runs almost perfect. Only problem is that it won't start as long as I have 2 or more screens active.

A friend on his PC can't start but it is crashing while starting a match. Weird thing is that this was working for a few tutorial missions and then just nothing. So the problems on Win 10 can vary a lot :/

EE doesnt work with the latest intel cpu's (latest update) in combination with the latest nvidia drivers for gtx 1080ti on windows 10. (although for me, but i can't be bothered to try and fix it.)

Strange. Since I have i5-7400, and gtx 1050ti with the latest drivers on windows 10 and it works perfectly fine. My guess is you've not really tried to get it working :D

Downloaded the neoEE patch after installing. Tried compatibility mode etc. Didn't work. And I'm not downgrading drivers for EE lol.

Nobody is asking you to downgrade though. What exactly do you mean by "not working"?

3 seconds into the game it crashes. Doesn't matter what map type/scenario/savegame/random map/campaign. Sometimes 4 seconds.
