Windows cannot load of Rise of Nations and when I restart it blocks my machine

I have a new Dell laptop with Windows 7 above.  I have an older game, Rise of Nations, I love to play.  I went to load it on my machine and it loads fine, but it does not open.  When I restart the machine, I get a locked machine.  I had to reboot in safe mode and restore to an earlier date.  Has anyone found a workaroundfor this?  I hate to say goodbye to this game.

have you tried compatibility mode.

  • Add/Remove components error and DVD driver error: Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

    Original title: Add/Remove components error and DVD driver error

    Yesterday, I removed several components of windows to attempt to clean my cpu. After the reboot, I noticed that my DVD drive disappeared. I tried to update the driver but told me I have the most updated version, I uninstalled and reinstalled the drive, but I still get the same error. Under Driver Details, it shows that I have a lot of drivers for my Phillips DVD player. However, the status of the device is the following: Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device. I've done the troubleshooting, and the two options has not fixed the problem.

    Then I tried to add windows components that I removed, thinking maybe that was the problem. However, when I try to add them, I get an error message that says: 'Setup cannot copy the file zClientm.ex_' it shows the location of this file as being in windows/i386, and of course, the file is located in this folder. So when I go to browse to locate the file, I find and click on it to open it, but I keep getting the same error message that the file is not found and Setup cannot continue.

    I realize that this problem seems very rare and weird, but any help at all would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello

    USB devices remove all you can - restart the computer - is still there, the error? If it isn't
    It is related to one of the add-in devices that you removed. If she is still there, then, the question is
    either a device internal who can not remove or physically with the USB bus itself.
    If it was not there, add devices at a time until it is displayed - keep in mind that it is
    possible that there are two (or more) devices in conflict over the issue. Once you
    identified the check of the aircraft with the help of the manufacturer.

    1. to find the control panel - device - device - right-click on it - uninstall - Manager then
    Restart the computer to see if it clears.

    2. same place - double click on the device - driver tab - driver update - to see if that helps.

    3. check with the support of system manufacturer (manufacturer of motherboard for customized systems), their
    online documentation and drivers, diagnostics and ask questions in their forums on all known
    questions. Update the Bios and chipset or other USB drivers.
