War Front Turning Point in Windows 7 cannot find the original cd

Does the CDs have scratches? Or is it that the cd does not install on windows 7 ? If this is the case go to explore, to the Cd drive (the Game)
look for the setup file or install file (.exe) right click on the file with you mouse, go to properties, click on the tab 'Compatibility, click on run the program, select windows XP and the buttom run program as administrator. i hope this helps

As it appears your game is a copied version of the original one, so that I won't start. Usually people try to find some crack files to get round this problem. Crack files are files that help you to get around problems like this sort, but you have to know how to use them. Usually there should be a instruction text file from where you have downloaded the crack files to tell you what to do with the crack files to solve your problem.

I recommend to return your game if you can and get the original. However, if you want to make this one works, let me know so I can try it and if I can install it on my Windows 7 then I will tell you how to do it.

You seem to have a "Not original" game. You have to replace the game ".exe" with the cracked one. Your CD has a folder that called crack. Copy all the contents inside this folder, to the game's installation directory. Thanks. Please Rate my Solution.

I got talonsoft eastfront II to run on my windows 7 laptop by using two pieces of software. First I use vmware player and created a virtual machine with a winxp install. Second, I ripped the original game CD using alcohol. This creates an image that preserves the special formatting that is necessary because of the SafeDisc copy protection that is used in this talonsoft game. I mount this image using alcohol since my laptop does not have an optical drive. The vmware player sees the mounted image as a normal cd drive with the original game cd in it. I can install and play eastfront II in the win xp virtual machine. I installed the 1.02 patch. No other special settings were necessary. All features appear to work with this setup. The videos play, the unit viewer works (help files with transparency does not work in win 7 normally), background music and sfx are streamed off the virtual cd.

you have to crack this game. First of all you have to open your disc from cd-rom drive, then open crack folder, copy that .exe file and paste into your game directory where you installed your game,then replace that whet it ask to you. now you can play freely.

Cheers and sorry i cant help anymore thnx.

Since you just copy-pasted AoE 3, the installation registry keys were not created. When the expansions are installed, they check Windows Registry first to make sure that AoE is installed. If you have the disk for the original AoE, try reinstalling it. You should then be able to install the expansions.

Try running and setting "Compatability Mode" for XP SP2. Right Click, on the programs .exe, and set it there. Also RUN in Administrator Mode, always.
