randomperson139 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 It's not playing because the screen resolution for the game is wrong. Go to the program files for the game and open the 'em4.cfg' file that is in there using notepad. Find <var name="r_xres" value="1152" /> <var name="r_yres" value="864" />And change the x value to 1366 and the y value to 768. It should work after this.

randomperson139 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Share Posted February 24, 2011 When I try that and I want to save te chances it says access denied... du you know any way to get around that?Right click the file and click properties. Click the 'security' tab and click the 'edit' box, select 'users' in the top box and then tick the 'allow' box for 'full control'.Alternatively, save the file to the desktop, then copy and paste it into the program files folder.
