Neither one will work and I keep getting the Win32 error when trying to launch the game after a install.
The game remains popular among flight sim enthusiasts and has spawned hundreds of fan. The stock standard version simulates the Battle of Britain, and the Allied Air offensives in Western Europe during the Second World War in 1943-45. European Air War is the sequel to 1942: The Pacific Air War by Microprose. I have both the Microprose/Infogrames versions. European Air War is a combat flight simulation released by MicroProse in 1998. I have even attempted to rename the exe file.Įvery time I attempt to load the 1.2 patch to the Microprose version my hard drive keeps running and running and I keep getting a 'not responding' message. I had also read that the Microprose version should load on XP with no problem and the Infogrames version didn't like XP. I read one suggestion that said to copy the game to the hard drive and not load it. I have only found two however, both are not working for me. I have spent several hours searching around for work-around suggestions, including searching this forum. I came across my old European Air War game and decided to try to reload it for the 1st time in several years, since going from Win98 to Win XP and I am having problems loading the game.
