Windows 10: Age of Mythology on discs fails to start on Windows 10

Hi,


I have an original Age of Mythology on discs and I tried to install it on Windows 10, which worked, and updated, but the game fails to launch. I opened an administrator account, and there is no difference.

Hi James,

To assist you better please provide us more information.

• 
  What is the make and model of the computer?
  
• 
  Are you experiencing the same with other game as well?
  

I have gone through the game on the website. So, I suspect the issue you are facing could be because the game is not compatible with Windows 10. However, you can try running the game in compatibility mode. I suggest you to go to the article and try
the steps how to make older programs compatible with the this version of Windows.

You may also try installing the game in the compatibility mode. Follow the below steps to install the game in the compatibility mode.

1. Right-click on the game setup file and click on ‘Properties’'.

2. Click on the ‘Compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8/8.1 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed with the installation. Once this is done,
restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

If the issue still persists then I suggest you to refer to the suggestion by
DieselGenny from the following link and check if it helps.
