I've just finished a match against the Dwarves (they've been crushed by the White Hand  8-))
All you have to do is to install Daemon Tools 4.41 (or anyway a version before the 4.45), and then the image will work properly^^
So thank you again

It's my pleasure, I know I was a little upset when it asked for my DVD, there is no way I was going to always be using the disk when I wanted to play.

DrHouse93:
Greetings, companions of the Edain^^

I bump this post since there's a friend of mine who's having a lot of trouble in making the game to start. These are how he installed the game (under my lead):
1. Install both BFME2 and ROTWK with related patches 1.06 and 2.01 in Provvisory Mode
2. Installed DirectX 10
3. Tried to run the game in compatibility mode for Windows XP/7
4. Downloaded and used Turin Turumbar's Startup Fixxer
However, the game simply doesn't want to start. It always crashes on the startup, saying the infamous message "Battle for Middle-Earth has stopped working"
These are his pc components:
- GeForce GTX 970M
- Intel Core i7-4720HQ 2.6 GHz
- 16 GB Ram
- 64bit OS (x64)
Put beforehand this problem started occurring when he upgraded his pc to Windows 10, and it worked when he had Windows 8 (even if he needed to fix non starting games any time through the launcher), the question is: how can this problem be solved?

Turin Turumbar:
I have posted this multiple times already, maybe I'll need to make a sticky post for this.

This is an Intel Driver issue. The game is automatically launched with the onboard Intel Graphics Card on Intel/NVidia systems, since the game does not need any good graphics hardware. The problem is that the Intel driver is bugged and crashes the game. You just need to make sure in the NVidia settings that the game (game.dat and the games .exe) are run with the NVidia processor and not the Intel one, so that the NVidia drivers without the bug and the good hardware are used. The problem appeared after the Windows 10 Upgrade because the newer, bugged driver was then installed. Old (like 1 year old) did not have this issue, but are not supporting Windows 10.

DrHouse93:
That finally worked, thanks!!^^

However, there's another friend who's having the same problem. But I couldn't find a way to change the drivers used, because he has an Intel Graphics 4600 HD GPU, rather than an Nvidia one (he still has Win 7, though). Is there a way to change the drivers to be used through the Intel Control Panel, or does he have to upgrade his pc to Win 10?

Turin Turumbar:
If he only has an Intel GPU than he can't change it for sure, since there is no second GPU build in. But he can simply install an older graphics driver, since older Windows 7 drivers did not have this problem.
