Is the game fully patched? Have you got the latest drivers for your PC's
hardware, not the ones on the CD's that it came with it, the ones that are
available for download from the manufacturers websites? Is Vista fully
updated?

You should install the 1.04 patch or higher for Battle For Middle Earth 2 to
run on Windows Vista.

Bro sorry to say that from my findings and discussion with EA LOTR BFME2
and ROTWK are not compatible with a 64 bit system. If anyone finds
anything to the contrary please say so...
