New system / tech help

[Gevatter]

John, Gary and all others,

just a more details for clarification.
I now have Vista, yes
the matrix versions runs fins :happy:

After installing EiF the game starts fine (but as EFII, V1.01a)
I then load the old replay and the game crashes
Then I used the "EiF updater patch", it brings the game to V1.02

I then started the game again (all fine)
Then again loaded the old replay and IT RUNS :happy: but...
after watching the replay all my units had a hard attack value of only 1 :hissy: :censored:

Any ideas, suggestions, comments ?
Please help !!!!

V1.03 of EF is EF Gold AFAIK. V1.02 is the common and regular version of the game.
EiF installs EF as V1.01a, and there are two patches available.

Thanks in advance !
