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
Syed Irfan

  • 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.

  • Difficulties to install Age of Empires III, help please?

    I try to install Age of Empires III on my laptop HP G62 under Windows 7 Home Premium, but it keeps stuck a blob in to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Games\Age of Empires III\art\art3.bar

    Does anyone else have this problem? How can I solve this problem? I really don't want to have to buy another copy of the game.
    Thank you
    Tristan

    There should be no problem install AOE3 without using the compatibility settings.
    Worked for me on Win7 64 bit.

    If she remains stuck at the same point is could be a disk failure. You can try to copy the contents of the disc to a folder on your desktop and install from there. If the files do not complete the copy on the desktop of the disc is probably wrong.

    I do not install all the games in the default location - Program Files (x 86), for several reasons.
    I used separate partition or HARD drive, but a new folder in the c: / drive is good enough. Name it what you like. You can install all your games in subfolders within that.

    Do you have other games that are installed with the specifications of the similar system of the same vintage (2005)? It is possible that the game ends to install if it does not recognize the Intel HD integrated graphics card.

  • Cannot install 'Age of Empires III War Chiefs' on Windows 8.

    Original title: Age of Empires III war Chifes does not install

    I got a new computer Windows 8 64-bit. When I tried to install my favorite game Age of Empires III, the expedition of warlords will not be installed at the same time the Asian Dynasties and the Age of regular Empires is installed and works very well.

    I searched the web and couldn't find the answer, when I try to install I get error of 1268. I tried all solution on the web. I'll be glad if someone can guide me throw it.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I had problems to install this game as well.
    The error occurred to me was that the program was not installed for all users.
    I found a solution to:
    1. go to computer > C: and the option to display hidden items.
    2. after a hidden folder named ProgramData will appear.
    3. then you should go ProgramData > Microsoft > Windows > StartupMenu > programs.
    4. When you are in that folder you just create another folder named Microsoft Games.
    5. inside of this new folder, you create another one named Age of Empires III
    6. now just try to reinstall.
    It worked for me on Windows 8, I hope it helps someone.

    Hello

    always check the compatibility of vista programs on the link below

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/default.aspx

    If a program is compatible with vista you can try right click on the setup.exe, and then selecting run as administrator

    It is not compatible with vista, you can try running it in a previous operating system mode

    This does not work for all programs

    read the information below

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-compatibility-mode/

    If a program is particularly important to you, there is this way of trying

    but it's expensive, because you must have a previous operating system license to install

    This method also works in vista Home premium, BUT is not supported by microsoft

  • Try to install age of empires II, freezes at "control panel update" box.

    I tried everything to fix this. The whole installation is going well until it gets to 100% and then says: "updating system settings" indefinitely. I tried it in compatibility mode for XP and windows 98. I tried as admin, Ive done the clean boot upward and all combinations of these "corrections." Nothing has worked.

    Hi ooochild,

    ·         You get the error message?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Disable/uninstall the security software temporarily.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Follow the steps in the article.
