Yes, everything seems to be fine. I just checked – I installed the game, and everything works normally. I click on MM9.exe, the screen goes black, and nothing happens! Only a reset helps...
The most interesting thing is that before, everything worked fine. There are no mechanical damages.

Run a virus scan on your system. Install the latest DirectX and drivers for all your hardware, and so on. Basically, follow the standard troubleshooting steps.

Oh, I initially misunderstood.
It turns out that Heroes is crashing, and I thought the computer wasn't turning on.

Of course, the problem is not with the hardware. It's about the game and system settings.
Checking for viruses is a must. Sometimes it helps. Sometimes, after removing the virus, the software still won't launch. However, there's nothing to worry about.
I would do the following:
1. Save all save games, custom maps, and other files.
2. Run an antivirus scan.
3. Run a check of the hard drive for bad blocks, file system errors, and other issues.
4. Uninstall the game.
5. Reinstall the game.
6. Copy all save games and everything else that you saved earlier.

If the software is pirated and has copy protection, especially if it's tied to a volume serial number, you need to restore that serial number. If there's some other protection, you'll have to find a workaround.

Not Heroes, thank goodness! Heroes actually runs fine (knock on wood!). But the ninth game keeps crashing – it just shows a black screen, and the only solution is to restart the computer. I've already reinstalled it and checked for viruses.

Everyone? Well, I haven't had a chance to install the patches yet...
Wait, so it's just about preventing the game from accessing the disc?

I don't understand what you mean by "prevent it from accessing the disc," but it doesn't matter...

Just install the game, put the patch in the game folder, and that's it! Everything works for me (I'm playing it right now)... And if you're interested, here's a link: http://www.buka.ru/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=16&sid=ec5bcf385aed6f8ebc3314ddace53624

I didn't understand what you meant by "discourage" =) but it doesn't matter...

You just install the game, put the patch there, and that's it! Everything works for me (I'm playing it now)... And if you're interested, here's the link: http://www.buka.ru/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=16&sid=ec5bcf385aed6f8ebc3314ddace53624

This is called "making the game independent of the disc." :)
I'm playing it now - it works. :) Also, Windows checked the disc, and ScanDisk no longer pops up.
I've installed a patch that restores the map to its normal appearance for now.

The game is installed once on the hard drive or the main drive. After reinstalling the system, it won't launch. The only solution is to "unbind the game from the disk." That's what I'm doing now, as I accidentally deleted it.

Guys! I installed the ninth installment on my new computer. The game installed, but when I try to launch the application, nothing happens. Basically, the game won't start, and I'm really disappointed.

Did you install the patches? If not, do it.

Guys! I installed Might and Magic IX on my new computer. The game installed, but when I try to launch the application, nothing happens. Basically, the game doesn't start, which is really frustrating.

Could you provide more details? What are the computer's specs, and what software is installed? Otherwise, we'll be guessing about the problem for a long time.
