Thraisenth	Shogun Total War: Gold Edition problem.		Lead	[-]
Posts: 5 11/07/09 06:23:52	Tags : vista, shogun, starting I recently decided to play S:TW after having not played it for well, ages. However after installing the game any time I try to run the game it instantly comes up with the error message "Shog_CPP has stopped working". My computer exceeds the requirements for the game, and all my drivers are up to date. I am on vista which I am assuming is likely the problem as it has been far too often with other games. Any help would be greatly appreciated in resolving this issue.

This should stop the crashes, although there had been complaints of slowness during the battles. BTW, you didn't mention if your Vista is 64 bit or not, as well as the model of your video card.

The game does not even start up so changing that option isn't even available to me. And I am running 32 bit Vista and have a built in "Intel(R) 82945G Chipset Family" card. Thanks for the help, really want to play this game again.
