AoE3 does not work on my Windows 7 computer

AoE3 and the expansion of the WarCheifs used to work perfectly on my Windows 7 computer, but recently, when I try to run the game, it begins to run (Ocwa logo appears on the screen), but then Windows tells me that it was an error and the program must close and just takes back me to my office. I already tried to uninstall and reinstall the two programs (and install the patches available on the Web site of the AoE), but it still does not work. What happened and how can I solve this problem?

Hello

I imagine the inconvenience that you have experienced, but don't worry, we are here to help solve the problem and guide you in the right direction.

To help you to propose measures to solve the problem, I would appreciate if you could answer the following questions:

1. you have any antivirus installed on the computer program?

2. are you aware of any recent software or hardware on the computer changes?

You can update the display drivers and check if it helps. You can also try to run the game in compatibility mode and check.

If the problem persists, you can start the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps. Clean boot helps eliminate any conflict of third party software.

Check if you are able to run the game. If the game works well if you have some incompatible software that could be causing the problem.

Note: when you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 3, mentioned in the article to start the computer to a normal startup.

Hope this information was helpful and let us know if you need help in the future about Windows. We will be happy to help you.

  • AoE3 does not work on my Windows 7, even after a repair.

    I am trying to run Age of Empires 3. If I want to play AOE3 on windows 7 I like to help out the program. Troubleshooting always ends by not being able to find the file splash.exe. I then said to look for updates on the sites of games, however, microsoft has closed ESO and so there is no update. How can I get the game to run. I have a brand new hp p6207c-b. I have windows 7 Home premium. My processor is Pentium Dual-Core CPU ES300 2.60 GHz 2.60 GHz. My memory (RAM) is 5 GB. My system type is a 64-bit operating system. My windows product ID is _-OEM-_-_. With a 500 GB hard drive.

    Jake,
    If you right-click on the game .exe file, then select Properties > compatibility set the program to run in Windows XP mode.
    If this does not help then you can visit this website: http://www.agecommunity.com/home.aspx they have downloads for the game and a forums page as well. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

    Cannot use the automatic backup device model Clickfree BAG HD325 on Windows XP.  It's a plug-and-play device.

    I tried to pass by and update the driver, but the wizard tells me there are no newer drivers available, and when I try to restore the driver tells me that there is no previous driver.  The USB port works properly and is the reading device.  I also tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver by using Device Manager, and the camera will not work properly.  The taskbar has said it malfunctioned, impossible to install correctly. and won't work properly, but after fiddling around by using the methods mentioned above, it says now that it is installed and ready to use, but the program does not start automatically.  I've been through to try to start the program manually, but it is not listed in the start menu or desktop.
    I also tried to add material using add new hardware, but it's not listed there either.
    I was able to use this program in the past, why I am no longer able to use this device?

  • Printer does not work on the Windows XP computer, get the error message like "an error occurred during port configuration. This operation is not supported.

    Original title: 1. printer stopped communicating with the computer. 2 port - associated configuration error?

    I have a big problem. All of a sudden my printer - AIO Photo964 said he cannot communicate with my computer. The printer works fine. I tried switching cables USB, all the trouble shooting suggestions, etc. etc. Nothing works and it makes no sense. I can't print anything. I thought it would be that I installed a Seagate external hard drive backup, then I uninstalled the program - no help. ITunes installed recently, because she had changed the printer default, changed back - no help. The USB cable is not tight in the printer (or both cables, I tried), but AFAIK it's not new (?) And when I try to configure the port, I get the error message "an error occurred during port configuration. This operation is not supported"I have no idea what it means.  Can someone help me with this? I have to return a new printer? The USB port on the printer is repairable if this is the problem? How will I know? Who would do that?

    Thanks, I'd appreciate any help.

    It is always useful to have the complete error message without paraphrase.

    It also helps to identify the version of Windows you have, including service pack.

    And it helps to give the manufacturer of the printer in addition to the model.  In your case, I guess you have a Dell printer.  I know that some Dell printers are rebadged Lexmarks, but I don't know if it's a.

    Why you try to configure the USB port?  It cannot be configured - you've discovered.  It's normal.

    It's quite strange that an iTunes installation would have had something to do with the printers.  What printer was made by default after installing iTunes?

    You say you have tried another USB cable.  Have you tried using a different USB port on the computer? Have you checked in the Device Manager (start > run > devmgmt.msc > OK) to see if there is all the warning icons in the category "controllers of Bus USB?

    I suggest you uninstall the printer software and driver completely and reinstall by following the directions in Its first Article.

    Don't skip step 4.  After step 4 and step 5, follow these steps:

    Important: If you have a Lexmark printer, skip the following

    Open a command prompt window (start > run > cmd > OK)
    type the following in the black command prompt window, and then press ENTER after each line

    net stop spooler
    dependent on the spooler of sc config = RPCSS
    net start spooler

    Jake

    Hey Jake,

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Follow these steps:

    (a) restart your computer if you have not already done so. There is always the possibility that the error Code 31 that you see was caused by a temporary problem with Device Manager. If so, a simple reboot can solve the Code 31.

    (b) have you install a device or a change in the Device Manager, just as the Code 31 error appeared? If so, it is very possible that the modification caused the Code 31 error.

    (c) cancel the change if you can restart the computer and then check again the error Code 31. Depending on the changes, some solutions may include:

    Remove or reconfigure newly installed unit.

    Restore a version prior to updating the driver.

    Use system restore to undo the Device Manager recent related changes.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    (d) to remove the registry values filters upper and lower. A common cause of errors in Code 31 is the corruption of two registry values in the class of the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive registry key.

    Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following link. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/back-up-the-registry
