I recently purchased a custom built pc packed with windows 8.1 which I upgraded to Windows 10.

I installed Age of Mythology yesterday and when I try to run the game nothing happens. I have tried all compatibility suggestions and I get the same result.

I also have this same problem with black and white 2.

I have a NVIDIA Geforce gtx 980 graphics card installed in my pc.

Can you provide any suggestions please.

Thank you.

    Have you the disk or downloaded version ?

    No other option ? Yes there is one but not too legal and somewhat risky : download a no CD crack...

    But have we really the choice ?

    I have to wonder, if turning that service on is a such a huge security risk, how is it any different than two months ago when we were able to use it to play our games?

    My problem now is that I have a program that "I PAID FOR" but cant use. I cannot return it for several reasons:

    1. I no longer can find the receipt
    2. I bought it from Office Max over 30 days ago

    I probably would have been able to return it but my partner inconveniently needed brain surgery and, silly me, I felt that deserved my attention more than getting a game to work on my computer. Now Microsoft is refusing to compensate me for my loss. Granted it is only $20 but still, they failed to make Windows 10 compatible with THEIR OWN PRODUCT.  Seems like a lot of bull to me and bad customer support in my book.

    So... Just finished talking to Answer Desk and apparently there is no solution but rolling back to our previous version of Windows if want to keep playing the game, as the "solutions" pointed out to us don't work and I was informed that NO ONE is trying to fix the problem.

    So in addition to a few other bugs and things that honestly don't work so well, like having no actual cloud service with OneDrive (just backup of your files and synch them between your devices), a few diminuished items on the personalised look of the PC... well... I'm a bit done with Windows 10. Unless a lot is fixed, I'm out for good.

    Not that 8.1 is my favorite, I still preferred 7, but I guess with all this, I'm definitely rolling back.

    Hope that in the meanwhile adjustments are made to make some features at least as good as the previous version, 'cause otherwise it's not much of an upgrade, is it? The best thing I've seen so far in 10 is Windows explorer back and the startup menu back.

    My regards...

    I got the program to work by disabling digital signed drivers enforcement. Below are instructions for windows 8.1 but I was able to use the steps to disable it on windows 10 as well.
