Vista Issue - Mark W - 04-29-2007 Hi everyone, migrating over from the Campaign Series side (although I've been out of action for a while) and wanted to give this game a try. I've had the Wargame of the Year edition for a while but never got the chance to install it and try it out. I'm using windows Vista and when I insert the CD it gives me a message that says the CD can't be accessed possibly because of rights permissions. Which doesn't make sense, seeing that I play and install many other titles on this same machine in Vista. anyone have any ideas? thanks! -Mark W RE: Vista Issue - Antoni Chmielowski - 04-29-2007 Mark, Are you trying to install using the administrator rights ? I am not sure if there a lot of people playing WOTY, a lot (including me) are playing TOAW3. Good luck and happy playing ! RE: Vista Issue - Currahee - 04-29-2007 I was never able to get the WOTY version, or older versions, to run on XP; it was a copyprotect issue, and sounds like what you're encountering. For a while I ran a dual boot; but then someone came out with a no-CD version of Century of Warfare, that solved the problem, so now I only run WOTY on an older computer, and I only use it to upgrade WOTY scenarios so they can be run in COW or TOAW III. The comprehensive solution is to move up to TOAW III, which is a lot better in many respects.
