By default the game supports maximum 1024x768 resolution, but you can play in widescreen by using the fix from nemesis2000 (simply put files from archive to the game folder and edit lotr.ini).If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP).That NoCD "breaks" DRM protection and allows the game to work on modern systems NoCD is required for the launch because the game is using SafeDisc DRM protection, which doesn't work correctly on modern systems.Don't forget to close rundll32.exe process in Task Manager after finishing playing Now try to launch the game again, it must work. Close ROTK.exe but don't touch rundll32.exe (it's a Windows app for running old apps from 32-bit operational systems, most old games running through rundll32.exe). If the game doesn't work - try to launch the game, then open Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del by default) and check for processes ROTK.exe and rundll32.exe. Right click on ROTK.exe - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows XP" and "Run as administrator" Open the directory with the game and find ROTK.exe.Optionally install widescreen fix or dgVoodoo.Then install NoCD (simply copy ROTK.exe from the archive and replace the original exe-file inside the game folder).Also it is recommended to install DirectX 9 from the disc (if you're using Windows 10 - enable DirectPlay, read this or this guide how to do it).In example, if CD1 was in virtual drive G:, CD2 and CD3 must be mounted in virtual drive G: as well CD2 and CD3 must be mounted in same virtual drive as CD1, so first un-mount disc image of CD1 and then mount the disc image of CD2.
Do the same when the installation process will ask for next disc. When the installation process will ask for CD2 - mount the disc image of CD2.Skip the registration at the start, click on "Register later".Launch the installation (if autorun doesn't work - simply launch the installation from Setup.exe inside the disc).
You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 102% or Daemon Tools Lite We also tested the game with NoCD and dgVoodoo on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, works fine too The game with widescreen fix and NoCD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, works with no problem. Widescreen fix, dgVoodoo and NoCD files may trigger some false positive warnings by your antivirus, nothing to worry about, that files are safe to use.
