I just started it today and it wont work, the 110 one is not safe. the 109 dont work, windows 7 32 bit. thanks

[PMouser]

why is it not compatable?

[knucracker]

All 32 bit versions of the game work on windows 32 bit and are 'safe'.  You'll have to provide more information about when it worked, how it is not working, and what changed on your system before I can help.

Attach your Piriform Speccy output file here . When you create a new post, at the bottom of the window is a link "Additional Options". Click on that and select the file you want to attach.

It might be helpful if you were to actually share the error message that you are receiving.

[knucracker]

Try what is in this thread:
http://knucklecracker.com/forums/index.php?topic=14737.0

Are you running the game as an administrator?  If not, try that first.  If that doesn't work, try compatibility mode.  You right click on the desktop icon for the game then go to Properties.  Select the Compatibility tab then check the "Run this program in compatibility mode" checkbox.  Select earlier versions of windows (like XP SP3) and see what happens.

--edit--
Also, you may want to just stick with the 32bit version of the game.  If 64bit made no difference, just stick with 32bit for simplicity.

I still get this when running the 64 version:

Unable to load mono library from "C:/CWTHREE/CW3_Data/Mono/mono.dll" (error = 126).

[PMouser]

For some reason i get farther using the 32 version

[asmussen]

I still get this when running the 64 version:

Unable to load mono library from "C:/CWTHREE/CW3_Data/Mono/mono.dll" (error = 126).

Based on that error, you may be having the same problem as described in this thread:

http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/195932-Error-126-%28Unable-to-load-mono-library-from-%29

If that is the case, you might try the solution listed in that discussion, which is to install the "x64 Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package" from http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/download/confirmation.aspx?id=14632

[knucracker]

Exactly... There is a link to this package next the the 64bit download you get after purchase as well.  This is a one time download and install.  It is already installed on well over 90% of machines already.  But not being able to load the mono.dll in the 64bit version... that's the exact problem.

That said, the 64bit version will probably still crash like the 32bit version, though, once past that problem.

[PMouser]

So what can we do? i already got CW2 workiing on laptop it is a 32 machine, i looked

[knucracker]

Uninstall cw3. Download and install the 32 bit version of cw3. Once installed right click on the desktop icon and choose properties. The choose compatibility. Then choose 'run as' and select Xp sp3.

Lastly make sure you are loggedin as an admin or that you run cw3 as an admin.
