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.

    How do I do this step?

    Copy the aom.exe from the downloaded file and replace the one in the game directory.

    That is right, click "save as" then save it to your computer. After it is saved right mouse on it and choose "extract" when it is extracted, double click the folder to open it, copy the aom.exe and then follow the instructions in the previous post to copy it over the original file.

    Still getting just a bunch of error messages. 

    When I click download, it asks "what should Firefox do with this file?  Open with....or save file.  Can you give me step-by-step instructions from here?  I'm not sure whether I'm doing it right.

    Hmmm, worked beautifully for me,

    here is the link to ALL the fixed exe's and NO CD's for Age of Myth

    http://www.gameburnworld.com/gp/gamefixes/ageofmythology.shtml

    Perhaps uninstall & reinstall and then DON'T patch as I suggested, instead use the early version fixed .exe instead, I only linked the final one as after I updated in worked on my win 10 rig.

    One of these should work for you if you catch match the game version, you may have to try them all to see which one works.

    Cheers,

    Tried this and here's the error message:

    aom.exe - System Error

    The code execution cannot proceed because rockalldll.dll was not found.  Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.
