Okay, after messing around a bit with several tools, I finally got it working.

What you need:
- Daemon Tools 4.0
- wh40kwa-mini MiniImage from GCW (the 20,xx MB Blindwrite image)
- SR7.Stop 1.0 (get it at CDMediaworld)

First, start up DT4; leave all emulation options DISABLED.
Mount the mentioned Blindwrite MiniImage witg DT4.
Execute SR7.Stop and click 'Hide'; Leave SR7.Stop OPEN while you're playing!
Now execute the W40kWA.exe from the DOW:WA directory.

Thats how it works for me (Complete game, not only skirmish or so )

Ok i have finally found a way to get it to start after about 6 hours of reading the ways listed here and trying them. Now that it starts it will load through the movies and then get to the Please wait loading... screen 3 secs or so after it shuts itself off. Does anyone else have this problem or know how i can fix it. I know it is not my hardware because i have played it before on this computer before i patched to 141. Second, is there a way for me to roll back my patching to 140? 141 seems to be the starting point of my problems. also if it helps here is the warning log

Thanks in advance.

The process i used to get it to start was.

- Start daemon tools v4.0 and mount the .bwt mini image.
- Shut off daemon tools
- Not sure that this affected anything but i then turned on anti-blaxx and shut it off again.
- i then started the game and it worked fine no errors. (now just to get around this loading problem.)
