Age Of Empires The Age Of Kings Multiplayer Crash

Hi,



This issue might happen if the Windows Firewall is blocking the game from connecting to the LAN.

I suggest you to add the Age of Empires the Age of Kings, to the exception list of the Windows Firewall and check if the issue is resolved.

Follow the steps below.

• 
  Press Windows key + X key and select
  Control Panel.
  
• 
  Click on View by in the top right panel and select Small Icons.
  
• 
  Find and click on Windows Firewall.
  
• 
  Click on Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall in the left panel.
  
• 
  Click on Change Settings, find and check the Age of Empires the Age of Kings box for both
  Public and Private Columns.
  
• 
  If Age of Empires the Age of Kings is not listed, then click on
  Add and select the installed path of the game.
  

Hope the information helps. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows. We will be happy to assist you.



Thank you.

 

Age of empires 2

Q: I have both Age of empires 2 and the expansion disc, but it won't load the game and just bring up the troubleshooting menu. Please help.

 

Age of Empires 2 won't work with Windows 10.

Hi Dale,

I realize the inconvenience you are facing with the game Age of Empires II. I will certainly help you.

The issue could be due to the compatibly conflict between Video Card and DirectDraw.

DirectDraw is used to render graphics in applications where top performance is important. DirectDraw uses hardware acceleration if it is available on the computer. DirectDraw allows direct access to video memory.

I would suggest you to try the steps mentioned in the link given below in the order presented. Known video issues in Age of Empires II
