A rather bizarre technical problem?
Two nights ago I was giving out about the battle mechanics in Rome went to bed and the next day my computer would not start, it would freeze where you see the indicator for windows loading. I could boot into safe mode but could not find the problem, in the end after many hours I decided to roll back my windows to a earlier date, but still no luck finally I decided to take out one of my graphics cards as I had some indication it was a hardware problem. This seemed to fix the issue.
Now I am not saying that because I gave out about Rome that the Gods turned against me but the strangest thing is that everything did seem to be fine until I noticed that my Rome.exe file was gone, it had completely vanished all the other files are still there. Also my EU3\NA launcher now wont work.
Could anyone explain to me how this could happen? I can only think that going back to an earlier date (a month) affected both these games but why? I must admit I find these things suspicious.
Edit: by the way I run XP and reinstalling both games should not be a problem. What I would like to know in particular is why would my Rome.exe vanish because of a roll back.. Has this anything to do with some sort of security monitoring both games and the roll back affected this? Very odd..
