Thread: Warcraft 3 on Vista

This may belong in the Gamers Haven, and I've been searching for an answer for over 3 hours.

I got my new computer about 2 months ago, Vista, yeah. Finally decided to install games on it, I only have two, CS, and Warcraft 3. So I install Warcraft 3, works fine, then I try to install Frozen Throne [Warcraft 3 Expansion] but it keeps freezing in the middle at war3x.mpq...or war3x.mqp, close enough right? I remember experiencing the same problem on my XP but i don't recall how I got past it.


Anyways, so I search, can't find anything, just putting this in my regedit.
C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft \\Windows\\Start
Menu\\Programs

I don't know if I was supposed to put %USERNAME% or my actual username, either way I tried both, didn't work. Then I realized that I wasn't able to update my Reign of Chaos [Warcraft 3 original], so I found a solution online, to install it outside of Porgram files, and it worked well. So I was like, okay, installing Frozen Throne should hopefully work, but it doesn't, same problem. Then I try again but it says that Warcraft 3 isn't even installed. So I go reinstall it, same thing, don't install in Program Files. And I try to update Reign of Chaos, Doesn't work, try to install Frozen Throne, still freezing.

Well what the fuck its just the same problem over and over and i've been shitting on it for 3 hours or so and I want to fucking play.

Lol nvm Problem solved, I just used my brothers CD's instead... Delete anyone?
