I have AOE II as well as the expansion "The Conquerors"(CD) installed on my Laptop. It will not load. Every time i try to start AOE 2, it will spin in the CD tray, get to the loading screen, and then just stop. These are the things i have tried that have not fixed the problem: -Run as administrator -Change the resolution -UN-install then RE-install, both CD's Any suggestions would help, Comment if the post is unclear...
Got the same problem on my wife's laptop. The best thing that worked is a hard reboot - when game halts, you just reboot (reset), and then after clean loading of Windows you start only the game, and it works. It worked most of times (like 9 of 10, in the rest of cases it took another reboot), but that's obviously a nightmare :) Apparently I got rid of the problem but still unsure what helped. Here are the tips I used:
SOURCE: menu screen is black
That sounds like your video card is going out on your computer. You will have to get that replaced and then things will work properly.
SOURCE: Windows 7 won't run Age of Empires II Age of Kings
Make sure your Direct X installation isn't corrupted and that you have the latest video drivers. Visit the microsoft website for a Direct X installer.
SOURCE: Age of empires conquerors won't load.
its probably just your copy of age of empires you should return it if u are still on your warranty
