I want to play empire earth on my netbook, with win7 pro 32bit, but it crashes.
When I start Empire Earth, the videos are played as usual and when the game starts, it crashes. I've tried different compatibility modes and Admin permissions, but nothing worked. Also I installed the latest patches and the Add On (Age of Konquest), but it didn't work. Any Ideas what I could do?
Update
After all that time and many tries, I assume that it is not possible to run ee-zde on my nb. I guess the problem is related to the intel graphics card. Anyway, I will accept the answer with the most votes to get this to an end.

Could this be the same type of issue that affects other RTS games?
Try closing Explorer.exe either before running the game, or right after it starts.
Here is a question that is asking about older RTS games: How do I get an older Windows 95/98 game to run in Windows 7 64-bit without some colors looking off?
