Dominions 3 keeps crashing on Windows 7.

Whenever I try to play the game on my new OS, it plays alright for a few turns, then crashes. Has this issue been addressed before? Is there anything I can do to fix it?

Works fine on windows 7 for me.

Try compatability mode.

Works fine for me too, 64 bit version of win7. I did not install it though, it's just my old copy from Vista that I had backed up.

Sounds like it could be a corrupt "key.file". If you still have your manual handy, look in your Dominions3 folder for the file named "key.file", back it up, delete it, then start Dominions, and re-enter the CD-key from your manual.

Did everything work ok under your previous OS?

It worked perfectly on my old windows XP. Thanks for all the advice!

P.S. How do I turn on compatibility mode?

[Sombre]

Right click the shortcut - properties - it's in there somewhere obvious.

Thanks! It seems like it works fine now!
