lol, IDK, maybe it didn't install properly......try reinstalling it, or your graphics card may not be powerful enough to run it, I ordered my laptop to be a gaming monster, so I should be good for games for another year or so....... :laugh:

Figured it out and for anyone that is going to get this game if it doesn't work right when you install it go to www.ageofempires.com and download the upgraded version 1.0-1.5

I've played AOE II and that game kicked ass.

Rise of nations is about the same principal as the AOE, and I think it is by microsoft as well, I got really big into Empire Earth series after aoe II......lol. I will prolly get this game sometime in the near future....lol
