Hello folks!

I have been playing EE hardcore in the past and the last days I have been trying to run Empire Earth on a Windows tablet because it would be tight to play it on the tablet. To my disappointment this did not work for some reason. The tablet should handle it but it doesn't. The tablet specs are:

Does anyone know how to run Empire Earth on this system? I'm literally out of solutions. I tried running it in compatibility mode, nothing. Tried to you 3d analyze and checked the 'Force max pixel shader version 1.1) as said on the internet, nothing. If graphic memory needed for EE is 256MB so it shouldn't be a problem, if so, any ways to exted graphic memory? Hope someone can make something out of this. I'd be grateful for ever. Thanks in advance.
By the way, when I start EE it just freezes on the logo and I get an error that it doesn't react anymore.

Turn of compatibility modes. You won't need them.

Do you hear any sound?

What exactly is the error produced?

Be sure Eto have direct x 9.0cinstalled. it needs 9.0c not 10 or 11.

You can try booting into Windows with all 3rd party applications halted to see if something is getting in the way of you playing the intro movie.

There may be an option in a .cfg file to avoid playing intro videos. Not sure, though.
Don't you need to install the patch that's on the sticky for the game to work on anything over Windows 7?
