| Hello good people.
I was wondering if you could helpe me to get my good old C2 BFE to run on my new computer? this was one of my fav games about 4 years ago and i really want to get back in the action and in the community. I've spent a few good hours on google and some of the forums but still am not able to get this sorted out 
Am running a windows 7 and have all my drivers up to date...
The error is: C++ runtime library
C:\Games\Run\data\engine.exe

| Have you tried to run in windows XP compatibility mode?
This has helped many others in the past.

| Hello Daddio.
Thank you for taking the time to reply. Yes indeed tried the XP compatibility mode with service pack 2 and "running it as admin" but that did not work. Am trying to re-install the game in compatibility mode via the windows compatibility option but the installation won't even start... Any ideas please?

| I havent seen it with C2 before, but I am not aware of whats involved with windows 7 ether. (I have not upgraded for reasons of game problems)
But, have you tried turning off your virus protection, long enough to re install game, and give it a try.
This would include spyware programs.
Is your version installed with star force?

| How do i check if its the star force version? The game was purchased in England so am not sure.
tried turning off windows defender and adaware as well but to no avail... Also tried deleting the videos folder and running in compatability mode with no luck either
any other ideas/suggestions would be most welcome!

| I have the same problem...
Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
.../Data/engine.exe
The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
Windows 7 64 bits
NB - HP Pavilion dv5 1253cl
I tried to use the "startengine.exe" patch (http://cossacksworld.ucoz.co.uk/load/c_ii_patches/napoleonic_wars/c_ii_3d_patch_for_high_end_graphic_cards/51-1-0-142), but this doesn't work
