Now - after running the game perfectly yesterday!!!! - RotWK dies upon launch with the same reason that Emsi states above. So neither BFME2 nor RotWK works anymore : ( Any suggestions to correct this?
EDIT: Eureka! RotWK would die as it would not play except when BFME2 was set to "Patch 1.06" and NOT "Patch 1.09". Changing that back let it work. Still no luck with BFME2, even with the ini file correction.
EDIT 2: As of right now ... BFME2 is playing well in HD! I deleted and re-installed and re-followed the listed steps again, and it works. There must have been some install error or bad data on first install.
