Hi,

MY PROBLEM:

Short:
Installed HoM&M5 (EU Coll. Edition), no Addon
and all Patches (1.4 -> 1.41 -> 1.5 -> 1.6)
Everytime i start the game* it instantly crashes and windows offer me "search online ..." for a solution (without result window) and to close this program/message.

*(by click the Desktop Shortcut, the "Games" Shortcut in the startmenu and manually doubleclick the game.exe form the install directory

i tried all compatibility modes and Runas-Admin

My soft- + hardware:

Win Vista SP2 (x64) / DX 10.1

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600, 2400 MHz
NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT
Asus Striker Extreme Motherboard with
nVIDIA nForce 680i SLI chipset
4x 2GB GeIL CL4-4-4DDR2800
Analog Devices AD1988B @ nVIDIA nForce 680i SLI (MCP55PXE) - High Definition Audio Controller


and the same/more for the dev- and IT-Pro's

DxDiag:
64-Bit

32-Bit

My Eventlog says:

Fehlerhafte Anwendung H5_Game.exe, Version 1.60.0.51, Zeitstempel 0x4706f9e4, fehlerhaftes Modul H5_Game.exe, Version 1.60.0.51, Zeitstempel 0x4706f9e4, Ausnahmecode 0xc0000094, Fehleroffset 0x0072ffdd, Prozess-ID 0x1ad4, Anwendungsstartzeit 01c9d8cf2724e8d0.

in (maybe bad) english:
Fehlerhafte Anwendung = faulty apllication
Zeitstempel = timestamp
fehlerhaftes Modul = faulty modul
Ausnahmecode = exception code
Fehleroffset = error offset
Anwendungsstartzeit = application start time


It's everytime the same error and i can't find any solution with google :P

Maybe the problem is right before my eyes.

A.D. 1701
Assasins Creed

so much games w/o problems with Vista and 64-bit :P ...

Still no idea what it could be
That's weird
