i got StrongHold 2 for xp when it first came out and played it and uninstalled it a few years ago well i just put it back in my pc and i played it just fine well i got a update and now it will crash when i am trying to load it and the error i get in

AppName: stronghold2.exe AppVer: 1.4.0.0 ModName: granny2.dll
ModVer: 2.6.0.14 Offset: 00024f91

so what do i do to fix this please tell me i would love to play it again and if i cant get it fixed why would i want to get any of the other strong hold games

One of the following might solve the problem:
#1: Install patch 1.4.1

#2: Uninstall the game and make sure by checing in Windows Explorer that the games mainfolder including contents is deleted.
Restart your computer, then reinstall the game and patch it while your antvirus program and other anti-malware programs are disabled.

thanks i will have to use a net card before i can do that but once i get one i will give it a try
