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.

    The following worked for me

    Go to Microsoft Games\Age of Mythology\aomnocd.exe

    right click aomnocd.exe and run as administrator, it might try to install something.

    After installation right click aomnocd.exe and run as administrator.

    Now I am in a stress - and Microsoft is in a stress.

    If AOM isn't working by December 31,

    I will surely NOT install Windows 10! :-(

    Why the same company (Microsoft)

    doesn't support their own game?!!

     - Its a shame.
