I downloaded Empire Earth while it was free because I enjoyed the game very much as a youngster and was hoping to be able to play it again, but the game just hates me it seems.
Everything seems to run fine as I don't have any problems with the menus and such, but whenever I try to start up a map it will either freeze up as soon as the map starts or a few seconds afterwords.
I am using Windows 7 Home Premium on a ASUS PC desktop (64-bit) with an AMD Phenom II x6 1035T Processor. I've noticed that some people are having problems as well with Windows7 when playing this game while others are not which is rather frustrating for me. :/
I have used the compatibility settings that have been recommended in other threads but the problem still persists. Also, whenever the game loads up the random map part of the menu it lags a bit and sometimes shows my anti-virus program asking me whether to block or allow the program, which I cannot click on since EE is lagging until the little pop-up disappears.
Would this be the issue as to why it isn't working, or is there something else? The anti-virus is Trendy Micro which causes my computer to crash whenever I try disabling it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I really want to play this game again. >-<
