I got that error when I tried to run EF on a corrupted install. I uninstalled(deleting all the EF directories left too) and reinstalled steam version, and later EF.

hey..1st post on my acc..anyway i got this error too, but after a little random clicking i found the problem.

on the launcher at the top you will see a tab saying "Settings". Click it.

At the bottom right it will say "CoH directory" put C:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\companyofheroes

hope this helps  ;D

i found it blank but now it plays..now i just need to figure out how to fix my crash..the game just crashes on loading screen 1st time loading up a map, and the second time it crashes ingame...  >:(
