Age of Mythology won't work

Postby Giloh on Tue Sep 20, 2011 12:20 am

Don't know if this is the right place :/
Recently I got windows 7 64bit, but Age of Mythology requires msxml 4.0 to run...this is only available for a 32bit OS. Any ideas on what I could do other than get 32bit?

Patch it.
Then try to play it.
If that doesn't work, google.

Download the MS service pack containing the correct DLLs.

People can make a forum post, but never google things.

AoM was the only AoX game that ever got my interest. Loved it. Expansion sucked ass tho.

OK, lopers, here is a tougher question. Where can I play AOE1 and AOE2 online?

this brought back so many memories, i played this game so much when i was younger.

anyways with older games like this always run as administrator and try giving compatibility mode a shot.

I guess this remark is on the edge, but still...

Pirated (cracked) versions are longer lasting than the originals. Rollercoaster tycoon original didnt work on win7. Tried cracked version: worked. Anno1701 wouldnt start on 7. Its cracked counterpart did. etc. etc. etc.

Just a FYI.

I can't register the DLL because it's 32 bit only. I tried.
And a no-cd crack didn't work :/
