Hi, I've had this game for awhile and with my old
computer everything worked fine. I just bought a new
computer last week, and I was playing AOE2 but the only
problem is when im playing the game I have no music, but
when im at my menu screen, intro, ect. the music is
playing and works fine. The only time I do not have music
is when im actually playing. What can I do?

Hi Rick,

I suggest you update your sound drivers as you're using
the plain vanilla ones that are installed by default on new
systems.

If your PC has two CD drives, try playing the game from the other one. It
worked for me. I have no idea why (and frankly don't care, as long as it
works).
