Whenever I try to start a training game, campaign, or random map in Art of Conquest, the game crashes at a black screen with a cursor on it. It also occasionally freezes when loading the main menu, but I can usually restart it and get that to work. That doesn't help with the map loading issue, though. I've already tried running it in WinXP compatibility.
Anybody got any ideas?
