An error occured in the application

I have a strange problem, maybe someone may help me. I´ve installed the fleetops, vista patch and mediafiles. After then I deleted the .map file and copied the new .exe and so on.
But when I start the game, there is immediately the message: An error occured in the application with the following bug report:
madExcept version: 3.0d
exception number: 1
exception class: EInOutError
exception message: File access denied

I have already reinstalled for several times. The starting logo only occures without the new .exe and .mad data, but then I have the Vista - crash.

don't stick the game in your programs folder, stick in in your my documents on your desktop... UAC causes it to crash...

Good advice btw
I don't even have to run Flops in administrative mode for it to work

Do you happen to know whether I can still play armada II on vista with Flops?
