When attempting to start the game i get a message stating "Errors: Could not find required data. Make sure you are running this utility from your Dawn of War directory"

i have installed the latest Direct X and have never had any problems playing the original Dawn Of War

Any help would be greatly appreciated, however i'm not too good with PC's so you may need to dumb things down a little for me!

Thanx :)

Have you moved the DoW install directory since installing? If so then that needs to be updated in the registry.

Have you ever had any mods installed for DoW? If so, then they could be causing problems?

Have you done a clean reinstall of both games? Thats the simplest thing to try first (uninstall, delete install directory, reinstall both).
