Hi Girish,

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are having problems with the game Age Of Empires II, you receive an error message "AppCrash.exe". I'll help you fix the problem.

(1) what version of the game is installed on your computer?

(2) did the problem started recently?

(3) have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

Step 1: Let me inform you that the game is not compatible with Windows 7.

You can check the link below:

Step 2: If the version of Age of Empires II is not compatible, I suggest to install the program under Windows XP service pack 2 compatibility mode and check if that helps.

  • Graphics problems during the game Age of Empire II in mode full screen in Windows 7

    Original title: screen resolution and/or graphics problem with Windows 7.

    Hi, I had currently two computers in my house upgraded to windows 7, one a Vista XP.

    I am trying to run Age Of Empires 2 on both computers, the game has installed and running with ease, however it won't let you play the game in full screen, and also the color of things like grass and trees appear in red and orange, water displays brilliant purple.

    I tried to change the windows screen resolution and the resolution of the options in the game, but it only changes in the percentage of the screen resolution, that he chooses to play in.

    I can solve this? All advice is appreciated and thanks in advance.

    PS I tried to reinstall and update graphic drivers, both computers have the same problem of new clean installations of windows and Age of Empires 2.

    Thank you

    It is a problem due to the fact that AOE 2 was built on the platform Windows 95/98 Win9x. It will expose a few graphical artifacts while playing. You can try setting compatibility Win98 or Win95 check. There is also a workaround that may work in my opinion. You will need to search for "how to run StarCraft (1) on Windows 7" in Bing (Alternatively, Google: P) and it would show a site with a .bat file that could solve the problem of graphics in fullscreen.

    I hope this helps.

    What I did with StarCraft was this:

    On the desktop, right-click and select new text Document. Inside the Document, type this

    Taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
    D:\"StarCraft"\"StarCraft.exe".
    Start explorer.exe

    Just replace the location of StarCraft with the location of the AOE II.

    Save the file as: 'AOEII.bat' and then set the file type to the text file to all files.

    What happens is that if corrects the discoloration and restart the explorer again after the end of the game. Although there is no easy way to change the icon of the good bat file: P
