Hi, all. I've got the game installed but can't seem to get it to run. When I fire up AOE3, the mouse gets the 'busy' effect for about 10 seconds, then nothing. If I look in taskman, I see Age3 using a steady 5 MB of RAM. Killing the thread results in a quick error that pops up as follows:
Script Exception Win32StubLib
Error Code: 12
TR_Decrypt: Failed to get the transaction encryption key
Param 1:0
Param 2:53
I've run a DXDIAG and everything runs fine. Every other game I have runs fine, although DS2 does have an ungodly load time, but other than that everything runs great.
I can post hardware specs if that will be helpful, but it's basically a P4/HT 3.0 Gig system w/ 1.5GB RAM, and an ATI 9800 pro video card running XP Home SP2.
If anyone can share a tip or point me in a direction toward a solution, it'd be much appreciated!
Thanks!
