Okay, I am trying to get this game to install on my computer but it just won't let me. We thought it was the memory and I just deleted a bunch of stuff I don't use anymore. But, still didn't work. So, I decided to ask some of you guys cause I know a lot of you here are computer Wiz. And to let you know the game was meant for Windows XP/2000 but that shouldn't be the problem because I got both Rome Total war and Medieval 2 total war setup fine and they were older games. This game is an expansion pack to Medieval 2 total war called: "Medieval 2 total war Kingdoms" And this is what it says when I try to install it:

"This 1.03.000 update cannot be applied to the 1.00.000 version of this game"

P.S. "Also it says under Minimum system requirements needs Service pack 2 or higher and I don't know what that is.

So, Please help.

go to www.canirunit.com it's this website where you look up whatever game it is and it'll scan ur computer and tell you if you can play it or not and if not it'll tell you what you need to play it and usually give you a link to where you can get what you need to play it

It said:

Error: There was a problem downloading the ActiveX component. One of the following happened.

1) You did not give your permission to download the ActiveX component (sysreqlab.cab from Husdawg, LLC). If so, you can start over (you will have to close the browser and start over), run this service again and give your permission.

2) Your browser settings do not allow browser Plug-ins to be installed. You can change your settings and try again.

Your system is probably fine, what it sounds like is that you need is to install the proper patches to update your version of the game from 1.00.000 to 1.03.000. You can probably find them online by googling Medieval 2 total war 1.03.00 patch or update.

I'm still having trouble with this. My computer meets the minimal regiments. The only recommended requirements it don't meet is the requirements about the graphics. But, I still have the minimum requirements to that. It just don't make sense.

Can't. Need the first one to upload the second one. The second is an expansion pack.

Went to the website and a lot of people had the same problem. They said the solution was to get a patch called 1.02 or something. And I'm trying to find it.
