Sup niggers. I don't know where else to go with this shit.

Sometimes the program will appear for a split second in the task manager, but then it's gone again.
I've tried:
>Reinstalling
>Updating games
>Windows Defender, (I know it's shit recommend me something else.)
>Running in compatability modes
I'm lost. Has anyone even encountered this problem before at least? I couldn't find anyone else asking about every game they had.
I need to play Age of Mythology again and fuck buying it on Steam. And fuck asking Reddit.
Help me /v/, you're my only hope.
Also Age of Mythology thread.
not tech support
not current hardware or OS
not sure if CDs are even readable in a DVD?
its old, just pirate it

Just download a crack for it and run it w/o the cd.
I was just replaying the campaigns today, since I got tricked and bought it on steam for the new chinesse race.
The china campaign is basically a lazily made mod and the new units are reskins of other units with laughably bad animations.
Multiplayer seems dead so i dunno about that.

What OS are you using?
>>333333333
what do you mean by "fuck asking reddit"
did you already go there, or do you think it's something we would recommend? both are bad answers by the way.
anyhow, you don't even need to pirate it, you just need a nocd crack probably.

I shouldn't have to pirate this motherfucker. I've been playing the same disc for like 10 years.
SW KotOR II seems to work just fine for some reason. It's the token only game.
I've played most of the games before on this machine, so I know they're compatible.
>>333334678
I mean fuck the idea of asking them.
Do I have to get some torrent program for these nocd cracks?

Windows 8.
rise my pretty

Did you recently upgrade from 7? I have a similar problem being that all of my older disc based games no longer function, so I run them on a virtual machine which seems to be working
