Battle For Middle earth 2 [RESOLVED]

[Chose]

On my old computer battle for middle earth 2 and the expansion pack and it worked fine. I bought a new computer with vista and installed them both. It worked fine.

Then I uninstalled Rise of the witch king (i don't remember why) and reinstalled it. It installed fine but when i start it the exe picture comes up, and it says one for awhile then a error box come and says "Battle for middle-earth II has stopped working A problem cause the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." but nothing comes up after.

After that i tried playing the battle for middle earth 2 with out the expansion pack game and it worked fine. Because i wanted to play the game with the expansion pack i tried uninstalling battle for middle earth 2 and reinstalling them both. Now the same error box comes up for both.

i have already tried changing the compatibility to widows XP and the same thing happens. I have also tried running it as administrator.

my new computer is

Intel duo E6420
RAM 2 Gigs of corsair
GTS 88000

Any Ideas?

run through the follow these steps first link in my sig.when you uninstalled it did you delete all the files for it?

I found out the problem. After i installed it i overclocked my CPU it. Then i reinstalled it it did not work. So i set the CPU back to normal speed and started the game. It started fine. So then i put the CPU back to the fast speed and it still started fine. So when you first start the game you have to have your CPU at stock speeds.

if your overclocked,and it wont install properly.you most likely have an unstable overclock.back down the oc just a bit,and all will be well.
