I have purchased this game and excited about it. But after installing and launching the game, this message pops-up..."Cannot launch application, emadevice_dll.dll can't be found".

Any remedy for this one?

Thanks!

are you running XP or vista...i have vista. with vista you have to right click on the launch icon and run as admin. if you have xp i connot tell you why those dll files can't be found.

Did Res1stArr3st's suggestion help? If not, try rebooting into selective startup and then reinstall the game. Keep in mind, if you do have Windows Vista, this OS is not fully supported for the original Blazing Angels Squadrons of WWII.

Steps to reboot into selective startup:
Go to the Start menu, and choose Run. Delete anything on the Open line that you'll find there, and type in the word MSCONFIG. Click on OK, and that will bring up a program called the System Configuration Utility.

Look down the list of startup items (not the tab labeled Startup), and choose Selective Startup (if it is not already selected). If you don't see this, make sure you've clicked on General, near the top of the window. Once you've chosen Selective Startup, uncheck 'Load Startup Items', and leave 'Process System.INI file' and 'Process Win.INI file' checked. Once you're done here, click OK, and let it reboot your computer.

Your Windows environment may look different and you may get an error relating to your sound device not working (ignore this for now). Try running the game again. If the game loads and seems to be working, the problem is most likely related to one or more programs you have scheduled to load with Windows. You can then revert the settings back the way they were, and in a trial and error fashion, disable some programs using the startup tab (in the msconfig utility) to try to find the culprit.

If the suggestions above didn't seem to help and you're using Windows XP, follow the steps below.
