Serious errors can be caused by many things like viruses, overheated hardware, hardware not supporting the minimum system requirements etc" error , i am runnning windows 7 ultimate 32 bit, i am sure its no the requirments, or virus , it started to give me the problem after i updated to 1.04(which i need to play multiplayer) 1.00 works perfectly, i tried diffrent cracks, reinstalled the game, tried compatibilty mode . Nada. I have no mods installed . Please guys help me , i realy wanna play this game.
I already got some help from MR class, and yasamoka but no luck so far :(
Most important of all...it seems that Zero Hour does not actually have the problem...Generals does. You need to use Uninstall Tool to completely wipe out both games. Then patch Generals to 1.07, patch Zero Hour to 1.04, apply the cracks, and enjoy. Me and Mr.Class always face no problem when we do that, and we have 64-bit Windows 7 (which really screws up some games because of its denying write permissions to the Documents folder where many games store their options and savegames).
EDIT: Those who have problems, including lorcan32 and eido, please do the following in case you run out of solutions.
1) Rip the Generals and Zero Hour CDs onto the PC with the problem.
2) Mount the images. There should be 4 images if you're running the original EA installers. If not, I suggest you get them. They are 2CDs for Generals and 2CDs for Zero Hour.
3) Install TeamViewer and give us (me and Mr.Class) your Partner ID and password. We will connect to your PCs and offer you remote assistance. Hopefully, we can fix the problem.
4) Join our Hamachi network for Generals, LOTR, C&C3 Tiberium Wars, etc...:
