Re: command and conqer red alert 2 Fatal string manager failed to intialize properly

@keiran1978 Hey, it sounds like you have a permissions issue, please try the steps below. 

"***FATAL*** String Manager Failed to Initialize Properly" error on Vista/7: To fix this error, make sure the game is running as Administrator:
Browse to the game folder, right click on "Game.exe" -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Tick "Run This Program as an Administrator".
Do that for all .exe (application) files in the RA2 folder.
Note: This error can also occur if you do not install as Admin (See top of guide!)
