  • Age of Empires 2 cannot host the game with Windows 7, Server networking DirectPlay

    I recently installed Age of Empires II: The Conquerors Expansion on Windows 7 Ultimate RC1 at home.

    This game does not work on Windows 7 with some work. First color is screwed up because it runs using 256 colors. Killing the task of 'explorer' in the Task Manager, while the game is running fixed that.

    My new problem is that I can't host a game in network on Windows 7. I've done some packet sniffing and I think it has to do with Directplay Server does not properly.

    According to Wikipedia

    • In Windows Vista , DirectPlay has been deprecated and DirectPlay Voice and NAT Helper of DirectPlay have been removed.

    I can join Games hosted on a Windows XP with Windows 7 machine, but I'm not able to host my own games.

    At work, we all use Windows 7 to play after hours is not possible because we do not have an XP machine to host the game.

    How can I me Directplay specifically Directplay Server run on Windows 7?

    I tried AOE2 running in Compatibility Mode for XP SP2 as it as an administrator.

    Kind regards

  • Age of Empire II cannot install on Vista?

    I am trying to install it on my computer, which is a Vista, and while it loads, a popup tells me that is not working.

    I can not quite copy because my game is in French, but he says it's a file write error (?). He has written too location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Age of Empire II\AVI\AGE2. AVI, then he said to check my disk space hard or if the file is not currently in use (I'm doing my best to translate, I do not know all the computer talk in English)

    I can ignore it, but he's finally coming back without him, and then I'm screwed.

    I tried to run it as administrator, installation and basic, but nothing seems to work. All the solutions for that?

    EDIT: If I ignore it, the inevitable message is a message on DATA\graphics.drs
    I checked the location of the two files, but I don't see anything weird, maybe it's the last file is only 0 k...?

    Hello Whackbag.  Looks like it could be a damaged drive.  Especially if its happening right on a file.  Try to copy the contents of the disc on the desktop and run the installer from there instead.

  • Age of Empires II does not start in windows 7

    I bought Age of Empires II from amazon.com.  It installs successfully, but when I try to start it, it does not appear.  In fact, nothing happens.

    What should I do to solve the problem?

    Hi Divya R,.

    a. I don't get an error message. I think that I was clearly in the very first post of mine (reading-nothing happens)

    I read in other forums and I see there are a lot of users having problems with AOE 2. Such a forum suggested to disable UAC. I have disabled UAC. Now, it works fine. Thanks anyway.

    Could you tell your people to Microsoft to publish patches to make the game more compatible Windows 7? Since there are a lot of known problem with AOE 2. Could we avoid having to experiment with our computers and it might also help to keep the image of Microsoft.

    I get this error despite opening a session with the "Administrator" account or any other account with administrative rights.

    On my system the solution has been to start services Fast User Switching and Terminal Server Services. I had turned off as a matter of hygiene (I use nothing that they support) but in this case, they had to be running.

  • 8 Internet Explorer cannot be installed on windows update

    I noticed that Internet Explorer 8 could not install when I looked at the history of the update. Would be - this is why I get when im even not visiting all web pages, internet script errors?
    And also since it does not install properly or not at all, how can I install internet explorer 8 for windows vista? Is there a way to always install it on windows update?

    my firewall and anti-virus applications are all part of the Fairpoint security suite.

    Well, I must tell you that FairPoint Security Suite of Radialpoint is among the worst & most annoying there internet security suites. What security application internet suite or the antivirus has been installed before you installed FairPoint Security Suite earlier this year?

    The foregoing despite...

    Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

    -Online U.S. & CA residents: 1-866-234-6020

    -Online other locales: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?&prid=13043

    My personal recommendations include:

    -Online install IE8 manually, not through Windows Update/automatic updates! -Online http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/worldwide-sites.aspx

    -Online save the installer to your desktop, do not run it.  When you are ready to install IE8, right click on the saved file and select 'run as administrator '.

    -Online uninstall all third-party toolbars (e.g., Google;) Yahoo; Windows Live) and a third of the Windows themes before installing IE8.

    -Online close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon of the taskbar) before installing or uninstalling IE8.

    => I highly recommend disable your antivirus and anti-spyware "protection system" application (with the exception of the Defender) before you install (or uninstall) an update of IE.  If you use a third party firewall [and you are], I recommend neutralizing him and then activation of the front Windows Firewall install (or uninstall) an update of IE.

    -Online restart twice after installing or uninstalling IE8, then check-in to Windows Update and install the critical updates of security offered.

    => For the best chance of success with IE8, make sure that your version of the Kaspersky Anti-virus application, all anti-spyware applications (other than the Defender) and your third-party firewall (if any) are supported in IE8 before decide you to install it.
