The situation is as follows:
I have a licensed copy of Heroes 4 from Buka.
After installation and launch, I get a black screen, and the computer freezes.
I read somewhere that a patch is needed (a different executable file, about 8 MB). When I run it, I get an error (I don't remember what it was).
I reverted to the original executable, installed "The Warlords" from the disc, but it didn't help. The game still freezes the computer when launched.
I was advised to install Equilibris. I downloaded it, ran install_Equilibris_v.3.51, and it gave me a checksum error, saying it doesn't match the reference version.
I read on the download page:
Q: Despite having a working installation of Heroes IV, the installer complains - it doesn't like the checksum of the file. What should I do?
A: First, stop the installation. Then, just in case, copy heroes4.exe and campaign_editor.exe to a safe place (if you haven't already). Most likely, you just need to download the files heroes4.exe and campaign_editor.exe from the Downloads section. Extract them to the Heroes folder and run the installation again. There should be no more messages about an incorrect checksum, and the mod should install. Whatever the reason, remember that your old version of the game remains functional in any case!
I reinstalled the original game, downloaded heroes4.exe and heroes4 map editor.exe, and Equilibris installed without errors and runs. But when I try to start a TCP/IP server or a new game/scenario, it gives an error and crashes.
Compatibility mode doesn't help. I decided to stop here and ask what to do next.
P.S. - The original Heroes also works, but it also crashes when trying to start scenarios or the server.
Windows XP SP2, single-core Celeron, NV7300gsPCI-E256mb video card, 17' 1280*1024 monitor.
All add-ons for Heroes 3 and Heroes 5 run.

Guys, please help! I'm having the same problem with the added protection again. I have all three parts of the game from the bookstore. On one computer with Windows XP SP2-3, everything installed and ran normally after patching. On a laptop with Vista, everything installed and ran without any patches. Now I have Windows XP SP3, and nothing works! I tried installing it in every way possible: part-patch, and then all at once and then the patches - nothing works: the game crashes to the desktop, and the music continues to play in the background...
The problem is solved! The game was conflicting with the Power Panel utility.

Hi everyone! I decided to play Heroes 4, nostalgia hit me =)). I installed it... when I try to launch it, the disk identification window appears and disappears after a second, and nothing happens. I reinstalled it, but it doesn't help. I installed the "Gathering Storm" expansion, but it doesn't help either. I downloaded nocd. The game launched, but when I click "Start Campaign" in the game menu, an error message appears... and the game doesn't start. Please help me =))) P.S. The game is a licensed copy.

Try patching to version 3.0 or 3.51 (Equilibrium).

Downloaded it from the Igromania website, but it won't install on my licensed Russian version. What should I do?

What and for what?:)
3.0 (also known as Whirlwinds of War) should be installed on The Restoration of Erathia. 3.51 (Equilibris) would be best installed on 3.0, but it can also be installed on the base version.

I have almost the same problem, but with slightly different consequences: I have a licensed and original version. After launching, the screen turns black, and I have to restart the computer. After that, I installed the EXE file, and it started displaying an error when launched. When I installed the latest version of the add-on, and the game started, now, when starting a new game in Campaigns or Scenarios in the main menu, the game simply crashes without saying anything. The most interesting thing is that when I launch the tutorial, it runs normally! In general, please help me as much as you can :smile33:
Here's the issue. I have HoMM IV. The problem is with the soundtracks. Why is there no music on the adventure map (only sound effects), and in the cities of Necropolis and Dungeon? In the other cities and during battles, the music plays. And also, why do I get an error message when I close the game? And why does the game crash when I enter the "Arena of Strength"? P.S. Where can I get the official campaigns?

I have HoMM IV Alexander edition. The problem is with the soundtracks.
I had the same problem; they didn't suit me at all. Then I installed The Succession Wars separately and copied the music.h4r file into the Alexander edition, and everything was fine.
