hi
i just installed this game on a new computer, windows 98, amd processor, 128 mb ram and microsoft synthesizer, but i can't play because abnormal programm termination(runtime error)
in AMME\paradox entertainment\europ universalis\europa.exe
or in a dirfferent way critical error at E:\avi\paradox.avi
exeptional error 03h in modul Kernel.32.dll
what to do?
 
kernel32.dll errors are often the symptoms of a trojan horse. If you have a good Antivirus (I recomment Norton personally), scan for virus, you might find one.

I also recommend a little freeware app Ad-Aware (www.lavasoft.de) that will search for spywares (stuff that monitor your browsing activities on the internet) in my case, it solve many kernel32.dll problems (same as you, but I didn't have EU at the time). Be aware that removing spywares on your hard drive might cause some shareware applications you installed to stop working since they rely on this.

Start with this, and once done post feedback :)
