If you don't already have two create a new partition -you can run diskmgmt.msc(from the search bar in windows menu) if that doesn't work due to "unmovable" files try using MiniTool Partition Wizard I) To have both win7 and win10 on the same pc you must double install windows7 and then upgrade one to win 10, the reason for this is that Win10 refuses to be installed on a disk that uses MBR, and windows 7 cant boot from GPT, however you can upgrade to win 10 and keep the MBR format. In this guide: How to keep win7 and still play this classic You will need: I) at least 55 GB of free space that can be converted into a separate partition II) a win7 and win10 copy, and a USB(at least 5 GB) or 1 DvD that you can put the win7 copy on I had to set DirectX as the input type and use a timed capture.Like many other people im not a huge fan of win10, rather i keep myself to win7 with almost religious vigor, there for im creating this guide for like minded people. Note: kudos to TechSmith Snagit which was able to capture the screens successfully the first two capture utilities I tried could not do so. The only remaining question: why does this work? Click OK and your taskbar and desktop will return. Then click Applications, New Task, and type Explorer in the dialog. If Task Manager is no longer running, press Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get it back.
Once you are done playing, exit Age of Empires. Switch back to Age of Empires 2 with Alt-Tab Click the Processes tab, find explorer.exe, select and click End ProcessĤ. Press Ctrl-Alt-Delete and click Start Task Managerģ. It’s playable, but that purple-stained sea and mottled grass is just not how it should be.įortunately there is a fix, and you can get Age of Empires 2 looking like this instead: The bad news is that the graphics are messed up. The good news is that Age of Empires 2, also known as Age of Kings or with the expansion pack Age of Conquerors, still runs on Windows 7 – impressive for a game that was released ten years ago. One of the problems with version three is that the scenarios are more constrained and the introduction of home cities and colonies changes the game in a radical and not altogether welcome manner. Age of Empires 3 was better in some ways, worse in others somehow it is not as much fun.
Age of Empires 2 is one of my favourite games, especially multi-player.
