If it is purely windows 7 related, possibly this might help, it made it work for me:
1.Right click the desktop icon, select 'properties'
2.Go to the compatibility tab
3.Select 'Run in compatibility mode for..'
4.Try different options until you find one that works.

Unsurprisingly, we can't read that - any chance of a translation?
Please open up the file setup.log in the Rome /logs/ directory with Notepad, and search for "checksum" - paste that line only in here please.
We should try a reinstall but the process is different - did you buy this game from Steam, or elsewhere?
If Steam: uninstall the game, manually delete all Rome-related files and directories from where Steam placed them, then re-install.
If non-Steam: Uninstall the game, and then manually delete the game directory - this is important. Reinstall Rome:Gold - choose a new directory like c:\games\rome instead of the suggested path. Download the 2.32c patch, and run it to install it; make 100% sure you point it to that same new directory above so that for instance the new rome.exe overwites the old one, the new romegame.exe overwrites the old one, and so on. Once done right-click on the game's desktop icon and set it to run as administrator, and to disable desktop composition.

it's written
"The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail"
and in the log folder there's no file with a name of checksum
i reinstalled the game on another directory, patched it to 2.32c patch and started the exe by administrator mode, but the game still don't start

Ah, OK, that's easy now. See the sticky thread above with "side-by-side" in the title, the fix is in there.
