  Original title: Age of Empires III: complete Edition. Installing reset percentage...

  Hello

  I am trying to install Age of Empires III: complete Edition on my computer windows 7 via the application of gamestop. When I interrupt the installation or turn off then turn on the computer, Setup resets to 44.3%. It feels like it will never finish the installation through this reason. Can you help me with this or is this a matter of Gamestop App support?

  Stop a download will often break the download, or it did when I was still using dial-up 56 k.
  The best way to get the successful download is to keep the machine running.
  I used to start the download before you go to bed and let it run overnight.
  Is there a particular reason, you must turn off your machine?
  It is also preferable to avoid making another on line jobs who can fly the download of the
  bandwidth when you have a slow connection. When a download is too slow it
  may also cause a corrupted file.

  If it's the only game that was a problem, then you can
  want to try the support of GameStop, but you deleted the file and restarted

• Installation of Age of Empires (gold) on a Vista Home premium OS.

  I have Age of Empires Gold Edition I bought quite earlier.

  After having moved the House and updated my pc I tried to install it on my new laptop. It is running Vista Home premium. The program works through installation installed 100% and then stops. Close the window by using 'X' and then when you start it tells me to insert the correct disk (because it deleted the files installed during the closure of the facility). Gold is not compatible with vista?

  Thank you

  I think it should work.  Try, right click on the installer and choose "Run as Administrator" and see if it works for you.

• age of empires III ERROR 1603 consult windows install help (msi.chm) or MSDM for more information

  I tried to install age of empire III on my computer windows 7, but I got an error until I had to even insert the key (ERROR 1603 consult windows help install (msi.chm) or MSDM for more information). I tried to enter in the files and run the setup.exe as an administrator, but it did not help.

  Anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?

  AoE3 is fully compatible with Win7 and I had no problem at the facility, but it may not be compatible with

  your graphics accelerator if it's an older 'integrated' graphics chip.

  (This should show a different kind of error message, but sometimes Windows spits a seemingly unrelated error message.)

  Try to post on AOE3 forums below. There may be someone who has had the problem with the installation of the game-

• Age of Empires III: Asian Dynasties uninstalling problem

  I installed Age of Empires III and two packs of its expansion. But when uninstalling, I left the Asian Dynasties and proceeded with the other two, and now I can not uninstall the package Asian Dynasties. Even when I try to install all the Asian Dynasties installation program once again, try to uninstall and fails to do so, stating the reason in the form of two missing files. Is it possible to remove the traces of the previous installation, as all the files in the installation directory have been removed?

  Hey aniket_s,

  What are the two missing files?

  You may need to rely on software from third parties to remove the traces of the previous installation of the registry.

  Please use your favorite search engine, and find one that is used.

  Before reinstalling the game, temporarily disable any anti-virus, firewall, anti-spyware software running on your system, then try reinstalling.

  To get help, view your concerns the forum below.

• Whenever I try to install Age of Empires III I get error 1305... help!

  Whenever I try to install Age of Empires III, I get error 1305 says "error 1305 reading the file. What I'm doing. This game was not cheap I just installed a new game if it's not my drive. I have 400 GB free, so I have all the space in the world. Finally, he worked on my old pc. I need help, and I'm very crazy. Help, please.

  Hey AnthonyMac,

  Consider the weather there is no scratches on the disc, clean the program CD-ROM or DVD. To do this, use a CD-ROM cleaning kit, or gently wipe the silver part of the CD-ROM with a cotton cloth soft and lint from the center of the round trip of the CD-ROM.

  If you still have the difficluties installing this, try to copy from the landfill, which is all the files which are there on the CD and see if you get any errors during the copy. If you have errors to copy from the CD, then the CD is wrong. You can download the installer from the Microsoft Web site:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=F627E37B-A8E8-4537-9A88-3C19B670C92A&displaylang=en

  Use this download for the trail version and use the product key that is on the CD to convert it into a full version.

  I hope that it works and would like to hear from you.

  Thank you

• How to install Age Of Empires III on a Windows Vista or 7?

  I bought Age of Empires III (without extensions, only the original) a few years ago and it worked well on my Windows XP operating system.  I now have a Windows Vista computer and another that runs on Windows 7, and AOEIII installs correctly on either.  On the Vista computer, I get an error message saying the game has known compatibility issues, but there is no solutions when I click on the button "find solutions online.  I choose to install the program even when and installation runs without any problems, but after a few minutes, an error message appears saying that there is an error in opening a specific file and I need to check that the file exists.  I click try again, but the message continues to appear every few minutes.  I tried many solutions online, including the execution of the program in different modes of compatibility and running it as an administrator.  I downloaded a patch for the game, but when I double click on the patch to fix the game, another error message appears saying that there is a problem with my installation.  I checked many sources who say the game is fully compatiable on Windows Vista and 7, but of course, it does not work for me.

  Hi blakesk8dgk,

  ·         What is the exact error message you get?

  Check first if Age of Empire III is compatible with Windows Vista and Windows 7 in Windows 7 or Windows Vista Compatibility Center:

  Windows 7 Compatibility Center

  Windows Vista Compatibility Center

  Step 1:

  Take a look at the link to the following article:

  Error messages when you try to install Age of Empires III or Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends: "Error 1935" or "Error 1904".

  Step 2:

  If the game is not compatible, then try to install in compatibility mode and check if it helps:

  Windows Vista - Make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  Run Windows 7 - make older programs in this version of Windows

  I hope this helps.

• Age of Empires III: the Asian Dynasties cannot install the "Art5.bar" of the case and would not proceed beyond this file. I have

  Original title:

  Age of Empires III: the Asian Dynasties

  After a few years with Age of Empires III: the Asian Dynasties uninstalled I recently tried to install it. When the Setup could not install the file "Art5.bar" and would not proceed beyond this file. I tried several facilities with the same result. If it is a zero or a problem with the disc, is there no way, far from buying a new copy, which would allow the installation of The Asian Dynasties or would repair the disk? Is it not possible to force the installation to jump before the installation of the file "Art5.bar" and try to find the file online a patch or another source?

  I found similar questions online and was trying a possible solution, which was to copy files from my drive in another file and try to install from there. Then I discovered that windows can not copy a certain file on the disk, called ' YPack_ ~ 1 ' correctly. The copy process stop, just as the installer of The Asian Dynasties had previously and would not then spent the ' YPack_ ~ 1 ' file. I was also unable to copy the file '00002.tmp', but I was able to jump in front of the copy of the file. I don't know if this file is corrupted and critical for installation, were not able to determine if yes, when you attempt to run Setup from the folder Setup cannot start the installation of The Asian Dynasties without the ' YPack_ ~ 1 ' file. I have not found similar questions online and do not know if this is the issue of the installation of The Asian Dynasties or indicates files corrupted on my drive.

  Hi, I could not also copy the 00002.tmp, but I think it might be due to a cyclic redundancy check indicating a damaged drive.

  Maybe try to download this file from the internet and (after checking that it is the right file) replacing the version on your CD.

• Windows 7 Age of Empires II and Age of Empires III doesn't fill the entire screen

  I just finished the installation of Age of Empires II Age of Kings and the Expansion of the Concqerors on my new PC which has Windows 7.  Not only am I have problems of color with Age of Kings II, both games II and III will not fill my 27-inch (1920 x 1080) monitor.  I set the screen resolution and downloaded the latest driver for my GTX 580 of NVIDEA but nothing seems to work.  How can I solve the problems of color with Age of Kings II and how can I solve the problem with the games only using the central part of my monitor and leaving a lot of black space on both sides.  Y at - it a patch from microsoft for these questions?  If this is not the case, there should be.  Help, please.

  This is not a gambling problem. These old games only were not aware that future screen sizes might be greater than 640 x 480, probably 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768 (high end!). So there not in the set of options to set the display in today HD resolution. This adjustment can now be done by the video card driver that must be able "to scale", or you will enjoy with the size of the screen not interpolated, original (on a screen 1920 x 1080, which will only be part of your actual screen). I do not have an NVIDIA card, on my AMD card, 'scaling' option is an Advanced Catalyst Control Center setting, there should be something similar in the controls of your card.
