Also people with large video ram (>768) usually have no idea that they are cutting their available address space that video applications can use. Players have to dominate the world through economics, espionage, diplomacy, and military force. This is predominantly a 32 bit problem, as game assets grow then memory footprints grow. Empire: Total War is a real-time tactic and turn-based game, which is set in the early 18th century and released in 2009.

CA chose not to utilize 64 bit safe coding practices OR natively support 64 bit so people with 64 bit OS's are also affected by this issue. Addresses are limited and Vista and high memory video cards reserve and make addresses unavailable. Then in Windows task manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del one time only), under processes find steam.exe and empire.exe, right-click and choose set affinity. First i started Empire, then Alt-Tabbed the game.

I have set processor 2 for steam and 2, 3 and 4 for Empire.exe. Second time redownloaded it, then part 2 file is just blank, Windows can't even read it I'm lost after spending hours with this. The other ones are free and could take care of your game more efficiently. Why is Empire affected by this issue? Quite simply it uses a lot of memory and we are still in predominantly a 32 bit world. I downloaded part one and two as instructed, put them in the same folder as instructed, and when I launch DM, Windows says it can't find Empire Total War. These reserved addresses can be viewed in ones device manager. Large impact to virtual addresses being reserved, and therefore becoming unavailable, is due to things like Vista, large memory video cards, multiple devices whose drivers reserve addresses on boot up, etc. The official explanation why some people get affected and not others (this is to all those who flamed me saying to shut my cakehole because they could play the game fine.) (Quote) Why are you affected when others are not? Each machine maps different amounts of virtual addresses on start up.
