| Guest | Re: Vista and AoE2 I meant to add, have you tried copying the contents of the CD to another drive (flash or USB) or using a program like Nero or Roxio to make a copy of the CD ? It seems odd that it would die 4% in, I would expect it to die right away. "Dale M.

| Guest | Re: Vista and AoE2 Make sure that you have the patch - i think it is 1.0C. That was a problem I encountered. Also, make sure that windows firewall has AOE2 listed as an exception. On Jan 13, 8:22*pm, cm2327 <cm2...@xxxxxx> wrote:
