Thanks Kryo; that debug message may well be from the one time I did get it to work. I'm not seeing the partial black-screen box followed by a crash, and I don't think this is about screen resolution as I've tried all that and in any case Twilight of the Arnor runs fine. I'm glad that's the current version and that I'm not missing out on lots of content as a result - it means that even if I can't resolve this bug it's not really that big a deal. And Jomjr, I'm glad it all works for you

OK that was because I'd reinstalled the game but hadn't re-patched it. Re-patching it to the latest version allows GC2TwilightOfTheArnor.exe to run again and I'm able to play it with no problems. But GalCiv2.exe still fails to start.

After deleting prefs.ini in the GalCiv2 folder I am now having problems with the expansion. Another reinstall has failed to fix this. Here's the Vista error log: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: GC2TwilightOfTheArnor.exe Application Version: 1.9.1.0 Application Timestamp: 48c56ad4 Fault Module Name: GC2TwilightOfTh

OK I deleted prefs.ini but the game still doesn't start. And when I run GalCiv2.exe now, the game doesn't generate a new one. So here, as requested, is the entire debug.err. By the way I appreciate the help, very kind of everyone to be taking the time to try and sort this for me.

Thanks. My desktop is set at 1280 x 1024 but altering the values for the resolution in prefs.ini to match (and setting fullscreen to 1; colordepth was at 32 already) doesn't help - GalCiv2.exe just refuses to start :-( Nevertheless, I've just been playing a bit more of Twilight and have been enjoying it a lot, so at least something works - but still can't work out whether this is the standalone expansion or the full game? And its really weird that I can run the expansion .exe files bu

I am totally new to this game and have just purchased and installed GCII Ulti Edn, but am having some issues. If I run GC2Launch.exe and click on 'play the game' I am told to reinstall from CD or using Impulse. If I try to run the game directly from GalCiv2.exe, nothing happens at all - I get a prompt from user access control that I allow but then it fails to launch. I have reinstalled the game 3 times with no effect. But impulse (after I updated to latest version) reports that the game (whic
